It's still a common vocabulary. You're not rewriting the abstractions (or renaming them) every time.

How do the users know (and ensure) that they're really the same ?

Making copies like that, encourage per-project customisation of same-named things, doesn't it ?

And in your case why not just have the several different patches all be in the same folder with the abstractions?

In some sense, the examples/ folder of GridFlow can be thought as a big directory of projects sharing common abstractions and externals. So, in a sense, I'm doing that already.

To me, it's a form of packaging based on shared dependencies : things get distributed as a single package because they have a lot of dependencies with each other and/or in common (and there's not enough of a rationale to split the package). In GridFlow's case, it's also a form of packaging based on authorship : lots of things get put together because they share the same author (or by members of a same team, official or not).
