That may well be.  Anyway I think the right approach is to wait and see
how things develop; personally I think people, and communities, will get
used to the idea of {arch}, and it will cease to be much of an issue
(indeed, Andrea specifically noted it as something he _liked_).  If it
_does_ end up being a bitter sticking point with lots of people,
supporting both would not be hard, nor I think particularly ugly, just
one of those things.
