I've been mulling over who is a good candidate for *Editor*.
Someone with idle time on his/her hands?
Somebody who can use a high fluting word like *eponymous* in
a sentence sounds like the right kind of guy. I'm glad that
you clarified the part about 'prepended' which should have
been obvious to me from reading the prior posts (above).
However, since "prepended" isn't a word, there is something
of a shadow tinging your bid for the prestigious Editor role.
But maybe that is the kind of leader we need, innovative.
Technical terms count if they're in appropriate technical dictionaries:

However, my "candidacy" for Editor would collide with my employer's
unreasonable expectations about my carrying out my teaching and research
duties.
Doesn't it feel like karmic balance has been restored since
this topic has come full circle from theory to a practical
instance?!; to have the answer so decisively demonstrated.
Although it feels more like serendipity than synchronicity.
Anyone who puts "serendipity" and "synchronicity" in the same sentence
(and spells both correctly) must be bucking for Editor.
Is Pythoness eponymous to Python?
No, but I'm not going to be the one to break it to her.
