And every ancillary script sysadmins have written has to be rewritten. Every
user_prefs has to be rewritten. You are forcing a boatload of hurt on
innocent people. This is purely lifting a leg and peeing on something to mark
it as YOURS. Isn't that rather selfish?

The intent is to be fully backwards-compatible, so it's (hopefully) *not*

Hello all,
A common question we are receiving is what about using this terminology
instead, for example allow/deny.
The use of welcomelist and blocklist has evolved from discussions since
April and work done creating patches. We found that using these names
of welcomelist and blocklist are non offensive, reasonably descriptive
and since they still start with W and B, we avoid renaming things like
RBLs, WLBL, DNSBL, etc. This should help minimize the disruption when
4.0 is released with the new configuration options.
Regards,
KAM
