I wouldn't even mind a half way approach of saying that a vendor
shall provide a system function called $typename that works on
specified forms of input (as given in 22.2) and returns a
vendor defined string describing the type.

But responses to your question, and my other post, asking for user input
on this needs to have some time before we move too much.
