Is there a more generic form of RACK_ENV?
===

Every Rubyist has worked with `RAILS_ENV` and `RACK_ENV`... but is there a more generic variable name &ndash; perhaps from another software tradition?

For example, how do Java people or Python people express what environment (production/development/test) their programs are running in? `SERVER_ENV`? `APP_MODE`? `CHICKEN`?
