Heh... considering the relative language diversity around here, I'm sure
no matter what we come up with, it'll be offensive or otherwise weird in
some random language.  I think the people writing the software should
just come up with a name they like, and stick with it.  I can understand
why someone might feel uncomfortable with something like Zyklon, but
otherwise, trying to be PC and make everyone happy is a waste of time.
