New HORDE_APP constant?

[Jon Parise]

I'm thinking it might be useful to have something like this in each
Horde application:

Index: IMP.php

-/** @const IMP_NAME The app name. */ define('IMP_NAME', 'Internet Messaging Program (IMP)');
+/** @const HORDE_APP The application name for the Horde namespace. */
+define('HORDE_APP', 'imp');
+
+/** @const IMP_NAME The full application name. */
+define('IMP_NAME', 'Internet Messaging Program (IMP)');


This could be used to identify the application in the Horde namespace
for things like preferences.  Do you think it's worth creating a
new constant for this purpose, or should be just hardcode the
application name everywhere like we've been doing?
