D'oh! Of course it can be changed. I've moved them into the accordion
category, and now they're just "accordion.push" and "accordion.pull".

Since we have an accordion category, I see no reason to keep the "acc" at
the beginning of these glyphs. I'll have to make sure we don't get a
namespace collision if we change it just to "dot" from "accDot".
But here are the new names I'd propose:
accDot --> dot
accDiscant --> discant
accFreebase --> freeBass
accStdbase --> stdBass
accBayanbase --> bayanBass
accOldEE --> oldEE
Do these make sense?
Thanks,
Carl
