I agree that design and coding are more important, but that doesn't
mean that a good intuitive UI is entirely unimportant. I think
Michael did right when he decided to discuss the user interface in
advance of coding, and I wanted to contribute to that effort as much
as I could. I feel quite strongly about the naming issues, even
though it might not show in my language.
