The TextMate editor on OS X uses the term "bundle" for this kind of
thing. Apple defines a bundle[1] as "a directory in the file system
that contains executable code and related resources". I don't know if
it would be confusing to OS X developers to reuse the term "bundle" for
your proposed "Mode" concept in Vim; but then again, Mac users are in
the minority (especially Mac developers).
Other possibilities, in no particular order:
- filetype kit
- filetype package
- filetype pack
- filetype suite
I've been using the following sentence in my head to see how these sound:
"Download and install the ADA (blank)."
