That totally makes sense.

We're missing some best practice advices of how to alias what and when.
I did some minor cleanup in that regard lately, when I was working in 
certain areas anyway.

It would of course also make sense to clean everything up in that 
regard, but I would not like to have a high priority on that task, at 
least not at the moment, as we have much more important open issues 
currently. And as mentioned above, before we clean up we need to settle 
at least some advice what to do, so that things do not have to be 
cleaned up multiple times.

Kind regards,
Helmut
