1) Most scripts, being GET scripts for html content in a typical app,
are named html.esp (or html.whatever depending on the language). That
can be confusing when editing them, and lead to errors, developer
usability suffers.

I have not much experience with Sling and html.esp in particular, but I know this problem from Cocoon's sitemap.xmap across various modules (later renamed them, which was luckily possible, but you don't think about that in the beginning...).

And sometimes the tools make it even more difficult: Eclipse <= 3.2 on Mac for example, displaying only standard "sitemap.xmap" in the tabs, had *no way* of determing the full name of the currently viewed file - not in the application title, not via a tooltip, nowhere - you could only press sync in the typically huge package explorer tree, which is the exact opposite of fast switching between files...

The "it's too late" argument should be turned around: "if you won't do it now, you'll never do it!"
