My imagination is not any better, so I will stick with allow_unadvertised_object_request. I do think that that name fits okay in fetch-pack.c as well. The name will also allow for a possibly future option of requesting (unadvertised) hidden refs by name, but it would of course require larger changes of the protocol.
