Glossary model thoughts
IDA provides a Glossary model which has abbreviations for most commonly used terms in data models. This is good for standardization and helps generate consistent column names from attribute names. Only issue is that, sometimes with small words, the whole word may be better than the abbrn. E.g, REMIT is abbr to RMIT. IDA should allow an option wherein we can enter two abbrns for a word and it uses the longer abbr when space allows and switches to shorter one when some limit is reached.
