Using "Rawhide" as the release name of the development branch has been
around for so long that renaming it would cause all sorts of
additional problems.
It's even listed on the disambiguation page for "Rawhide" on wikipedia
... so since this is probably a branding / trademark issue, I'd rather
not conflate it with the discussion about renaming the default branch
in git.
