[pmwiki-devel] Trying to think of a name for a recipe

I'm working on a recipe which has clearly defined functionality, but I'm
not sure what to call it.

The idea of the recipe is a sort of extension of the "category group"
idea, only with multiple groups, and using page-text-variable-like
markup.

For example, in my fiction archive wiki, I have currently, things like
this:

Author:[[Fiction-Author/Fred Blogs]]
Universe:[[Fiction-Universe/Doctor Who]]

What the recipe would do is that I would have, instead, a much easier
markup, as follows:

Author:Fred Blogs
Universe:Doctor Who

The recipe reads that, and replaces it with links to the corresponding
pages in the related groups so that they can be set up like the
'Category' group, with listing of pages linking to them.

The groups are configured with an array, so that you tell the recipe
'Author' => 'Fiction-Author',
'Universe' => 'Fiction-Universe'

and so on.

But I don't know what to *call* this recipe!

Any ideas?
