No, the named bit for inputs is todo with inY_supply_raw etc
rather than the scale and compound versions both of which should
indeed be documented. I just mean remove the bit in the description
of outY_raw which refers to 'names'.  Basically get rid of 
' In special cases where the channel does not
  correspond to externally available output one of the named
  versions may be used.' as it doesn't apply to outputs. '

Any internal only output would be a somewhat odd beast.
