I don't think this is needed, unless you want to reuse the
"Mageia - Classic Installation"
"Mageia - Network Installation"
labelling from the download page of mageia.org.

Ah, that's a bit sad... For known releases, we can use the size of the
ISO to differentiate them, but for -unknown, we are indeed stuck. Do you
think it would be possible to improve this on the mageia side?
