I had the concerns about naming the RTTI types from the beginning; I
apologize for not objecting earlier. I agree in principle that the ABI
is in maintainence mode now; I disagree that such a change would have
a serious impact.

If you are thinking of the specific implementation I think you are
thinking of, I'd volunteer to update that, provided there is agreement
on the substance of the issue.
