Perhaps this is heresy, but we could stop calling our main development
stream "rawhide", and instead call it "main", then it will be trivially
aligned with the "main" git branch name :-)

I've never felt "rawhide" was a particularly good name. Unless you're
already familiar with Fedora, it is something whose meaning in the context
of Fedora has to be explained each time. The common meaning of the word
rawhide doesn't have especially positive associations either IMHO.
