That´s an important point. ChessDB follows the "intentions" (in my view at least) of scid more closely. Don´t get me wrong: The tactical stuff you do is just great, but it is something not clearly in line with a pure database approach. Scid has no interface for FICS/ICC for a cause! My feeling is, that tactical training and all that stuff were perfect as plugins more or less independent of chessdb/scid core, if a plugin architecture were developed. Because of that I would feel the takover of the _name_ "scid" as inappropriate given the direction you extend scid in. Respect for Shane´s goals with scid should mandate a name change for such extensions.
