Not sure I believe that argument. Among the set of existing libpq
environment variables I see
PGHOSTADDR
PGSSLCERT
PGSSLCRL
PGKRBSRVNAME
PGTZ
PGSYSCONFDIR
so it can hardly be said that there's a policy of avoiding
abbreviations. PGCLIENTNAME would be better than PGAPPLICATIONNAME
I guess, but I still prefer the other.
