I mean: if we decide that there are two major use cases (or three, or
whatever) and come up with names for them, those names will probably
conflict with some upstreams' ideas for what those names mean.
So there's a decision point between
a) following upstream conventions
or
b) having a consistent Fedora naming scheme.
Thanks for bringing that up this explicitly. My goal here — and I should have probably expressed that better — is your b) to have consistent Fedora naming scheme. But now thinking about it, this very question should have been asked first? What do you prefer?
