I definitely don't want to rename "Code:" to something else.
It would be a rather gratuitous change, since "Code:" is basically the
only section that appears in virtually all Elisp files and renaming it
would provide very little concrete benefits.

As for the end: I'd rather simply not define a convention for it.
I'm not even sure what would be the benefit of such a convention
(unless there's really something substantial that will often end up
there, compared to the current situation where for most files it would
only contain the `provide` statement).
