Does the CVE use the upstream name?  Or a normalized name?

I mean, in the R world, packages can have names as 'org.EcK12.eg.db'
which becomes "r-org-eck12-eg-db".  To easy the mapping for updating
and co, the package definition contains:

    (properties
     `((upstream-name . "org.EcK12.eg.db")))

Maybe, it could be worth to have similar things.  WDYT?


All the best,
simon
