Internally, yes. Not in the documentation, such as
omega/docs/termprefixes.txt, and of course scriptindex likes to think
of bits of the *input* as fields - but then scriptindex has its own
problems (such as the difference between the scriptindex index script
and the scriptindex input file, which turns out to be more subtle than
perhaps we'd like as a naming difference).
