FWIW I disagree.

I never understood why people want to complicate things by being able to 
name default _keys_ differently.  Why not letting "origin" being the 
default being pulled from, and be done with it?

Besides, I _really_ do not understand why we have such a discussion in rc 
phase.  There are _many_ more interesting discussions now that _also_ do 
not belong into a freeze phase.

Ciao,
