Chris Dee Wrote:Existing underscore-prefixed parts are NOT aliases, they are parts with hardcoded colours, so I think we already have a semantic issue.
That's a subtle-enough distinction that I'm not going to make it. One of the definitions of alias is "a false or assumed identity," and I think that describes physical-colored parts with sufficient accuracy for both my users and myself.
If more categories of non-parts arise in the future I can always change "Alias" to "Other" (or preferrably a more forbidding term).

In that case, I just need to know what that prefix is going to be. I would like to modify my code now, or I'm apt to forget.
