> See LUCENE-5527 for more context: several of us seem to prefer {{Leaf}} to 
> {{Atomic}}.
> Talking from my experience, I was a bit confused in the beginning that this 
> thing is named {{AtomicReader}}, since {{Atomic}} is otherwise used in Java 
> in the context of concurrency. So maybe renaming it to {{Leaf}} would help 
> remove this confusion and also carry the information that these readers are 
> used as leaves of top-level readers?
