what do people think about getting rid of current suite names ("stable",
"testing", "unstable") for most purposes?  We already recommend using
codenames instead as those don't change their meaning when a new release
happens.

Hi Ansgar,

Regarding suite names (stable, testing, and unstable), there are for 
convenience if you rather just want to stick to
particular distribution. If suite names are removed, you have to update 
sources.list whenever a new release is made
in order to keep up to date to your chosen suite. If you e.g. track buster 
(which at the time of writing is in testing)
instead of testing, you are tracking buster until EOL.

PS: I'm not Debian User or Developer, so my opinion can be misleading.
