We could also change the SphericalManipulator::set/getZenith property to s/getInclination() or s/getElevation(). In the both the later cases I'd be "inclined" to measure both from the horizontal plane rather than the Zenith/up direction - as a 0 degree elevation or inclination would relate to looking horizontally. Changing this would be just require us to rename methods/variables and change some of the internal maths.
If it were me, I'd go with Elevation (Inclination is measured from the Zenith, so the angle measurements would be inverted from the horizontal plane). I agree that using the horizontal plane as a reference would be the most intuitive.
