The key here isn't which tool is used, it's how it's used.

If you go use Coccinelle for pure variable renaming, you don't need to
mention it. Same as if you use perl or vim to do a s/foo/bar/.

That said, if you choose to attach your trivial variable renaming
Coccinelle script, everyone will be better off for it.
