Yes, that's mentioned in the commit message I quickly wrote in 0002.

There is one, but now that I look at it WAIT_EVENT repeated twice does
not look great, so this could use "FooBarName" or equivalent:
+   # Generate the element name for the enums based on the
+   # description.  Camelcase strings like "WaitEventName"
+   # are converted to WAIT_EVENT_WAIT_EVENT_NAME.
