INV doesn't tell anyone anything and requires new users to actually search out what it means, which in my experience they don't do.

Mind you, I'm not saying we need to change NOTDWU. Just saying which of the proposed changes would work.

I agree. TD has some reservations about INVALID because that word has lots of connotations, as I understand it, though I will admit INVALID, as a typical single word, is a bit more visually pleasing. There's nothing wrong with that more jolting feel, though, if what we want to get across is that it's an invalid source. I feel NONVALID is pretty apt.
