Naturally, I would not use the "RELENG_" but refer to them as FreeBSD-3 
or some other isomorphic usr-friendly label.

I would get rid of "-STABLE" part of elsewhere because it is redundant.

However, I would not discard "STABLE" entirely. I would just make an
alias or symbolic link to the most recent release that deserves that 
"blessing".

BTW, I think it was a mistake to attach the "blessing" so soon after the
branch was created. But that is another discussion.
