Hmm, I don't like "sweet list" at all.  The problem is the risk of confusion; 
almost all sweet-expression constructs generate lists, so calling one 
particular syntactic construct a "sweet list" seems to doom people to confusion.

Obviously I like "restart list", but John Cowan makes a good point that they 
could be confusing too.

"Collecting list" is nice and clear; the only problem I see is that it's a 
mouthful to say.
"Superlist" is easier to say, and does pair nicely with "sublist".
Both make sense to me.

Any other thoughts?
