It wasn't so much the what's current - as you say that would be fairly 
ridiculous as it's so fluid.  It was more a description of the topic.  I've 
got tonnes of branches where I have quickly thought of an idea and started 
work on it, only to get bored and move on.  Describing a topic in such a 
short space as "ap/short-name" is hard.

The actual place it's stored isn't really relevant, more that I could see a 
use for it.  If it's going in the config I suppose all it needs is a 
magic "and so it shall be" hand wave.  It doesn't require any new code does 
it?
