That is true -- but that only goes one way, from thinking about the
name "plz" to trying to use it.  It does not help people go in the
other direction, from an idea of doing something to thinking about using
this one library.

The number of unclear package names in Emacs is a big problem (epa,
eww, mml are a few examples out of many).  They are neither helpful
nor funny, and they make those pakages undiscoverable.

Let's not add any more of those.
