Big thumbs up. A few things for consideration:

1. Do we need numbers in the alias? We always release just a single Fedora at a time.

2. Do we need "F" in the alias? Unless our aliases clash, we don't need to distinguish Fedora from the other projects in Bugzilla.

3. As Jared mentioned, a "freeze exception" sounds better (and explains better) than a "freeze break". Unfortunately it's longer.


So we can end up also with this:
AlphaBlocker
AlphaFreezeException
BetaBlocker
BetaFreezeException
FinalBlocker
FinalFreezeException


But that's just an idea. Your proposal above is great improvement as well and I don't have any objections to it.
