Okay, as mentioned in the note to the patch I was a bit unsure if this 
could cause some backwards compatibility issues, so I did not adapt it.

But as discussed off-list, will adapt the constant name and note this in 
the comment to avoid future confusion on why this value was generated as is.

Yes, will see to move this to a dedicated crate then.

Thanks a lot for feedback!
