This, generally, sounds reasonable from a "package naming consistency" point
of view. However, especially regarding the situation you outlined: I
remember right this time of transition sawfish -> metacity, when some people
already wanted to adopt metacity whereas others still wanted to stay with
what they grew to know / like. From that point of view, a "generic" name
like SUNWgnome-wm is not really helpful as it makes figuring out what
actually is inside unnecessarily difficult. :)
