[sv-bc] $typename follow-up

In terms of $typename, what are the user expectations?  Do users
intend/expect to have $typename produce identical strings
across implementations?  If not, that might make the specification
somewhat easier since only the semantic decisions need to be
addressed.  If users expect $typename to yield identical strings
on every implementation, the bar is considerably higher since
format decisions would also need to be made precise.

User feedback on this would be very helpful.  I've cc'd this
to EC as well (EC only people - see the issues raised in
Mantis 1511 to see the context for this question).


Gord.
