// Q: I have a pretty name. Where do I put it - into base.StandardNames or into api.StandardNames?
// A: Is it necessary to construct trees (like EMPTY or WILDCARD_STAR)? If yes, then it goes to base.StandardNames.
//    Is it necessary to perform reflection (like ERROR or LOCAL_SUFFIX_STRING)? If yes, then it goes to api.StandardNames.
//    Otherwise it goes nowhere - reflection API should stay minimalistic.
