FWIW, I agree. But I what I haven't seen agreed yet is that Maypole uses
moniker for two completely separate purposes: (1) to generate
identifiers for use in code and (2) to generate human-readable strings
in HTML pages. The two need to be separated. The U::m docs claim the
second use but the reality is the first use. IMHO, we should remove
classmetadata.moniker and replace it with a proper human-readable string.

Cheers, Dave
