1. was this really our intent?
I'm not sure. Nevertheless, it was apparently made by well meaning people who thought detailed naming conventions would help to spot scope/type/semantic of an identifier easier. I've found again and again that this sucks for a variety of reasons. Let's change it to "^[a-z][a-zA-Z0-9]*$"
2. does anyone know what the "f" stand for?
"Field", I guess.
3. checkstyle actually suggests that "Variable 'ipd' must be private and have accessor methods." Perhaps this is our preferred solution?
This is usually a good idea but may cause quite a bit of work.
