Now I simply have to quote Preben Randhol:

  "Saving keystrokes is the job of the text editor, not the
   programming language."

Personally I find types the most important construct in Ada.  This
means that I generally try to give the "best" names to types.

Naming of objects and types would be easier, if we could use two
separate name spaces. But maybe our code would become harder to read?
