RE: Matt Needes proposed changes to e2sr:

I believe the whole approach of extensive use of properties and substitution
in the schematic itself is clumsy, in that it requires additional work to
maintain the schematic.  At CEBAF, we have used an additional utility program
which encapsulates our desired naming convensions into rules, which operate
correctly (99.9% of the time) on any record anywhere in the hierarchy, so that
there is no burden to editing the schematic to get the names right.

I think it would be a good idea to merge the two capabilities of e2sr and
our name mangling program, but it should not be dependent upon setting
properties in each record, but should instead be completely rule based.
