First, consider that you are posting on the users list. If you think
this should be changed then raise it as an rfe at rpmfusion.
However, it's not "in-house humour", those terms really do reflect the
state of the different plugins and are documented.
Freeworld in particular distinguishes incompatible builds that would
conflict with the same package in Fedora itself, a different name is
needed.
The others variously indicate code which is not great, or affected by
IP issues (primarily in the US), it's not necessarily within the power
of the packagers to do anything about that.
