[[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider    ]]]

[[[ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example. ]]]

I have nothing in principle against renaming "window" to "pane", but
it would be a big transient.  Before doing that, I think we should
poll the users to see what they think about it.

Would this renaming affect only documentation, or would we make
new function names too?
