Towards the end of the First Age, naming things was easy: We mortals would
ask Jasmin. And when a new realm was about to be created one would need
to explain why this deserves to come into existence. And what it would be in
the future, and what beings will dwell there, and how they will relate to
the lesser and greater beings that already are named.
And a name would emerge.
And the name would be a True Name.

Thanks to "global approvership" it takes two bots (plus up to half a dozen
humans that nit-pick on the spacing in the commit message) to get a patch
introducing new names _in_, and thanks to must-have features like "binary
compatibility" (in the notable absence of any promise of behavioural
compatibility) it's close to impossible to change a name, or even get it
_out_ again.
You consider calling that _A_ problem?
Nah...

I think it's completely unrelated to Enginio.
