I don't think it's necessary, if we have the distinction
between constant and variable.  Nor is the distinction
between name and expression useful.

These distinctions were diminished from Ada 83 to 95
(e.g. a function call returns a value (rvalue) in Ada
83, but returns an object (lvalue) in Ada 95).  We should
have gone all the way, and eliminated these useless
distinctions.

Why should "Hello"'Length be illegal, for example?
