Is it likely that 'backup' will be anything other that pll_p? If not why
not just call it pll_p? Personally, I don't 'backup' to descriptive even
though I can see what you mean.

I can see that you want to make this flexible, but if the likelihood is
that we will just use pll_p then I am not sure it is warranted at this
point.
