Martin Panter added the comment:

In general, I’m not sure it is worth adding aliases for various names used in 
different RFCs. But you could argue that this is appropriate because the old 
names are unnecessarily long. Another example would be 
HTTPStatus.REQUESTED_RANGE_NOT_SATISFIABLE vs “Range Not Satisfiable” 
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7233#section-4.4>.

If we were to go ahead with this, it would need a documentation update. A test 
case would also be nice, ensuring that the new name is the “one true” name, and 
the old name is an alias.
