I think I should rephrase what I said earlier.  I don't agree that it
applies to what currently uses the `elisp' prefix, which is currently
used by the likes of `elisp-byte-code-mode', and the `elisp-xref--'
group of variables.

That still has the `elisp' prefix, while something like
`read-shorthands' would be consistent with (as discussed further up this
thread) the `read-circle' and `read-symbol-positions-list' variables we
already have.  Not to mention it would be somewhat more consistent with
the plethora of print-XXX variables.

Thanks.
