My personal impression has been that we want to eventually get rid of stuff like this and just use literal strings as such in the code, and I have occasionally committed changes like that.

I guess there's no golden rule here.  Things like

  OUString const empty;
  constexpr int one = 1;

are apparently bad, but something like

  constexpr sal_uInt16 magic = 0xCAFE;

can be good.

(While we're not completely there yet, the /type/ of the literal should not drive the decision whether to name it with a variable or spell it out as a literal each time it is used.)
