That is what I was referring to by more work than it could be needed.

I just went through the KDE Games and Edu stack. This is the only exception
in those two stacks. So if such a renaming does not break anything, I would
ask for the renaming. If I see "KPatience" (or KPat) somewhere (k-c-d,
blog, and so forth), I can just go ahead in console and run "git clone
kde:kpatience" or "git clone kde:kpat".

The less term usages the better. I have just had a debugging session due to
this while packaging since I had to do things differently for this one
specifically.
