I know I know the next few things are obvious.... A net is a collection of pins that should be connected with a conductor.
A net has a name. gschem gives you all possible registered attributes when you decide to use one. Thus if you decide to edit a net segment and attach an attribute you can pick either net or netname. I tend to just use the net attribute but looking at the aformentioned reference I relize that others would be using netname for attribing (is that a legal verb) a segment. I think that this implies that support for both net and netname has to continue but would it be acceptable to autoconvert either way force segments to have netname from net, force component to have net from netname? Maybe with a warning? And did I get the presidence correct? Nets from component net attrib is greater then netnames from segments which is greater then automatic net name?
