I am not arguing on whether the branch name should be changed or not.
However, I do think this is a topic that should be discussed in a GCD.
I do not have an opinion on whether it's better to do it as part of the
Codeberg GCD or separately.  That's a decision that's perhaps best left
to Liliana and Ludo (and others, in case there were co-authors I've
accidentally omitted).

However, not discussing this via a GCD would go against its intended
use:

#+begin_quote
  The GCD process is intended to provide a consistent and structured way
  to propose, discuss, and decide on major changes affecting the
  project.  It aims to draw the attention of community members on
  important decisions, technical or not, and to give them a chance to
  weigh in.
#+end_quote

Given that it would affect users' workflow, I believe this change would
qualify as a major change.  And the importance of a decision made on
this topic is made no less important from the benefits being symbolic.
Symbols can be important as well.
