I'm fine with all these propositions, will make it more clear I think.

How about "Capsule"? I think it's more direct and more easily understood 
by non english speakers. It also bring up a mental image of a capsule, 
like our icon. How does an encapsule look?
To select several layers and bring them together in a capsule can still 
be called "encapsulate". I think some of the confusing also stems from 
this encapsulate/encapsule. encapsulate/capsule sounds more distinct in 
my ears.
Group can work, but as pointed out before, it is more than just a group, 
it is a canvas of it's own.

We scrap the use of paste canvas and inline canvas which is plain confusing.

Set sounds great. Or selection groups.

Not sure about this. I think bline is rather good. It doesn't have a 
different meaning in other software or contexts and it doesn't take very 
long to learn what it means in Synfig.
Path is definitely not a good name, I see paths of action before me or 
paths which objects follow.
With Spline I see vector curves used for altering animation in graph 
editors in 3D softwares.


Another think that is slightly confusing is "params" which is not a real 
word. Googling gives that it's sometimes used as slang for parameters in 
different prorgamming languages.
For non programmer users I think we can change to using "parameters panel".
