Instead of 'unified', how about 'zippered' or 'interlaced'?

   Perhaps I'm nitpicking too much, but I was looking for a single word
rather than "side-by-side" in the UI (in the code I don't mind). And the
reason I haven't gone with "unified" is because I thought that it may
confuse users to think it refers specifically to the unified format
(which I suppose it doesn't really; they just happen to coincide).

   Though to be honest, my first though was to use "side-by-side" and
"unified". In what may become a case of coming to a closed circle,
perhaps I should simply go with it.

   Ugh -- epic bikeshedding. I'll just go with it.

   Or is anyone directly opposed to using "Side-by-side" (with hyphens)
and "Unified"? Speak now, or rename it yourself later. :)
