[Therion] colour graduation lookup feature - choice of terminology

I'm liking the lookup feature added in October, in case you hadn't noticed
by my earlier posts.

However I wonder if the term 'lookup' is a good choice?

 

When I think about what it does, or achieves, it is about creating
collection(s) of map foreground colour palettes, which each map parameter
values to specific colours.  If a colour legend is produced, it controls the
legend text, and the number of legend entries.

 

I think 'lookup' is too generic, and it would be better to use a term that
better conveys what it achieves for the user.  

What about replacing the term 'lookup' in Therion with 'palette' or
'palette-map-fg' (to allow for other possible palettes in future)?

 

Before we get to imprinted on the word lookup.

Thoughts?"

 

Regards

Bruce
