... but that bug is only about the named page styles. That doesn't resolve the
issue of the choices in the Page tab of the Page Style dialog, nor the terms
used in the header and footer designators (e.g. "Right page header" etc.).
These definitely need addressing.

The thing is, it's not just the naming, there are (at least) two other issues:

* The relations of the alternating pages. Currently, in if we set out first
page to be a "left page" (as per the page layout setting), we get a blank page
before it, and which, in book view, is to the right of our "left page". Suppose
we rename "left page" into "even page"; why should the
auto-inserted-first-page, before the even page, be on its right rather than its
left? And note that this happens even if we set "left page"'s to have
top-gutters, i.e. the placement of the page is not even along the correct axis.
Note that the side (left or right) on the horizontal axis does not seem to be
influenced by the "gutter is to the right" setting.

* The styling of auto-inserted pages. As illustrated in the examples for bug
160686, the inserted pages are not styled with neither the odd page style or
the even page style (but with some elements of them, inconsistently).
