The other thing that I quickly noticed while writing up the
patches is that it's kind of tedious typing __kabi_ over and over

effort and finger cramps made me give up on that really quickly.
What kind of barebone editor are you using that doesn't offer a way
(through macro or automatic completion or abbreviations or
substitution or plain copy and paste or whatever else) to shorten
that typing effort?
Well, actually I was using vim, and although I know how to configure
shortcuts like that; do we really want to force people to use
shortcuts and abbreviations to be able to sanely edit the ABI code?
Isn't that counterproductive with the desire to get the maintainers
fixing up their own ABIs? Plus all the extra verbiage tends to make
the lines too long (80-column limit) and makes it harder to read.
