Bardur,
Since you don't like "bespoke", would you mind suggesting an alternative, or advocating for a previously mentioned idea? From [1], the ideas I've seen tossed around are:
* builtin * standard (Elliot Cameron suggested it here [2]) * wiredin (Cater Schonwald suggested it here [3]) * magic (Andres Löh suggested it here [4]) * native * original * specialized (the above three are ad hoc suggestions I came up with in a hurry)
(I think I did suggest 'builtin', but it was buried in a sentence, so it was easy to miss.) Honestly, I don't care particularly much which exact word it becomes just as long at isn't some 'cute' or obscurse[1] word. 'magic' belongs in the 'cute' category, I think and 'bespoke' belongs in the latter. Of the remaining alternatives I like 'builtin' and 'standard' the best, simply because they're common and not all that overloaded when it comes to their meaning in programming languages. Regards,
