a temporary variable AND name it appropriately; that's too loose of a
constraint.  So I would agree with Ramsey that the shorter, non-english
version is sufficient.  I'm not opposed to adding it, but I probably
wouldn't use it.

As for generating them in the templates I don't think it's worth it.  I
would take less time to declare a constant with the qualifier than to add it
to the model somehow.
