Nice usecase!

So maybe we should make this naming convention a suggested
standard. People seem to like it.

Are these bit-banged SCL and SDA for doing I2C with
GPIO? Otherwise you probably want to name them "[SCL]" and "[SDA]"

Same here. You probably want "[TXD0]" etc unless you're bit-banging
the serial port. "IO-1" sounds like a real GPIO though and should
probably be named like that without [] and "PH3" what is that really?
A device-muxed pin or some kind of GPIO?

So these seem correct too.

"LED1" seems like the right name, if this is a GPIO used to drive
a LED.

WHat is IO-GCLK? A real GPIO line used for toggling a clock?
Or a hardware clock signal? In the first case it it correctly named,
in the other case it should be "[IO-GCLK]".

Looks right.
