We are halting Karthik's topic to rethink its UI for now, but your
point stands. We should use a unified definition of what pseudorefs
there are across the codebase for consistency, and Karthik's topic
would be a better place to do so.
Andy, let me drop this topic for now from my tree, and let's wait
until Karthik's "iterate over all refs" topic solidifies, at which
time an updated iteration (v4?) of this topic hopefully can build
on top of it.
Thanks.
