I agree. A unique string to symbol registry would be a useless
indirection, as there is no information or ability stored in the symbol
that is not already inherent in the string used to fetch the symbol.
The solution to your version+realm problem of this post is trivial with
string names. Just use a well-known unique string (uuid or otherwise).
