Sometimes the choice of name is fairly uncontroversial and no further bureaucracy is required. Sometimes a good name bubbles up clearly out of the discussion. The rest of the time we may need something more formal.

Currently the decision of a name has been left to LML, but I can see leaving it to the Core Libraries Committee (CLC) as being a potentially good idea. One problem with that is fewer people = fewer chance for a good name. I know many programmers have trouble naming things all the time. Good names are hard to come by, and by leaving it to the LML we can hope that statistically that one of the best names will win.

I would rather have Core Libraries Committee to decide. They are
experienced, trusted and embodies the community as a whole!
