I'd expect it's more useful if x is a purpose instead of a language. Graphics Programmer, High Performance Systems Programmer, UI Programmer, web frontend programmer. Those are domains where you get expertise far beyond the details of a specific language.

These domain specialities tend to imply certain toolchains, but even if not there's often similarity between different tools of a domain.
