i think the Document Viewer is Calligra, actually .. Okular is our eBook
reader. but yes, i'd prefer to keep those names out of the marketing and
application listings for a variety of reasons. hopefully the distinction
between Books and Documents is clear enough for people ... though we hide that
detail nicely by replacing the "launch the application, open the resource"
workflow with "find the resource, open the resource"

The executable of Okular Active is currently called "active-documentviewer", that's why I assume Ivan meant that one. This is what I mean by "Even we confuse the applications" ;) Yes, hiding the application as such is definitely the way to go, but there may still be occasions where we will have to use the name in communication, and then we should still use it consistently. I guess we should hide "Images" from the launcher as well, and probably even "Books", as well as Calligra Active (since its main screen is pretty badly designed anyway).

I'm okay with it being called "Files" for now, but it should be called that
_everywhere_ then (in the Launcher, in the window title, in crash reports
etc.).

+1 for Files consistently across the board.

- activities (create new activity shot)
- market application (what are we actually calling that?)

"addons store"

The window title and the title for the kwallet dialog was still "Add Ons
App" last time I checked. In the Launcher it's currently called "Store".

i'd prefer "App" over "Store" as it's a lot more value-neutral. if we could
drop 'App' altogether and just call it "Add Ons" that'd be great, but it
doesn't seem meaningful enough to communicate the purpose of it to people
without "Apps" (or "Store" or something like it) attached.

Hmm... Well, the "App" in "Add Ons App" doesn't refer to the content available inside the "store" anyway, so I guess that can be dropped (since it's in the launcher, people know it's an application anyway). Therefore I'd vote for either really just "Add Ons" - or rather "Add-Ons", as that's the more common spelling I guess - or "Add-Ons Store". Just "Store" sounds too much like a thing where you can buy anything to me, like an interface to Amazon or something.
