Sorry, but there is no logic in saying "E should have its own toolkit,
and it should be ETK because it has the 'TK' for 'toolkit' in it and
EWL doesn't."  None whatsoever.  Naming is a non-issue and has no
bearing on anything of relevance whatsoever.

Look.  You're telling 2 projects you have nothing to do with what they
should be doing.  Surely you don't think that's acceptable....

If the authors of EWL and Etk had wanted them to work the way you
describe, they'd have designed them that way from the beginning.
Obviously, they didn't.  So what's the point of even making such
suggestions?  You're accomplishing nothing whatsoever.
