Consistency IS valuable though - it is irritating to try to remember if a _ is needed or not - and I usually don't - leading to a blizzard of warning messages from the oligo-neuronic compiler.
So I feel you should either go for always using multi_, or never. And since STL already uses multimap, you should ignore my hyper-sensibility about "multiindex" in names (and that would make it odd in the text).
The standard may have made a mistake. It's fairly easy to swallow "multixxx" but when there are more x's it gets much harder. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
