FYI, I started this roadmap thread to enumerate *already-ongoing* work
that justifies a move to 3.0.  This is not a call for wishlist items :)

Yes, this looks like a good candidate to change on OS X.  On Windows
the installation folder name can be easily selected by the user so
the default could be version-less too.

IIRC that left off with my "(?#TRE)" prefix proposal to switch to
the TRE implementation in a compatible way:

there is no need to tie this to a major version number change.
