Are you sure? It seems to me like the problem stems from the fact
that we have both

  - job-template:
      id: autotools-build-job
      name: '{name}-{branch}-build'

and

  - job-template:
      id: generic-build-job
      name: '{name}-{branch}-build'

Even if we had a separate 'projname' parameter, the names of the
generated jobs would end up being the same.

I guess we could come up with a

  - job-template:
      id: generic-command-job
      name: '{name}-{branch}-{unique}'

but that template would need to include the scm: configuration and
everything else...

Basically, it would end up looking pretty much exactly like like
generic-build-job or the autotools-website-job I proposed. Having
a more generic version of that would be a net win if we had a
bunch of these oddball jobs, but with a single one (which we will
hopefully be able to drop at some point in the not-too-distant
future!) on the table we might as well not bother.
