SCE assumes it's a default ctor at least as the element name is regarded,
shouldn't matter in our case, still sketchy though.

Done.

Please add a comment that this is for renamer conservative generator to rename
empty string to something syntactically correct.

[Anton Muhin, 2012/09/28 12:21:27]

Done.
