Well, I call "prefixed tokens" solution [1] and "grouped tokens"
solution [2]. Assuming we share the same view, [1] has definitely less
of an impact on Kconfig (see [3]). That's the main argument to prefer it
over [2]. My personal choice is still [2]. However if it happens
that other reviewers prefer [1], I won't object on it.
