Perhaps, but implicitly the graphics framework definitely wants you to be 
able to pass keywords for show() into plot().  And the 3d plots are pretty 
consistent in taking the "viewer" keyword.  Indeed, I think William would 
say it's a defect that we rely so heavily and explicitly upon matplotlib to 
do all our 2d stuff, and that ideally one would refactor this to allow 
other viewers there as well.

As to renderer, I don't care what it's called, but someone long ago must 
have chosen "viewer".
