Hi Nicolas,

Several people were in favor of reverting the name changes.

> In any case, for the time being, some games use a "pretty name", e.g.,

I’m all for it, thanks for taking the time to do it.  (That’s another
reason why this big-rename patch should have gone through review: once
committed, it remained, even though consensus was reached to revert it;
not a great situation!)

Please add a line like “This reverts renames made by commit XYZ.”

Just double-check that there are no unbound variables or anything like
that, after applying Tobias’ changes, and then go for it!

Thank you,
Ludo’.
