I am OK with this format (not in the sense that I like it better
than what the patch produces, but in the sense that I do not have
strong preference either way). It may be hard to come up with a
good heuristics to decide where on the display width "->" should
come, though.

The sentence above calls it "a common suffix", so instead of saying
<suffix> we can say <common-suffix> perhaps? Or did you mean
something more than that?
