> As a user, what I'd appreciate is that loader developers consider AppleScript's lack of namespaces and devise their own for handler names. For example, instead of 'import' it would be something like: "AM import …", "KT load library …", or "TB set recursive search for library "…" to …".


To offer another opinion, as a user, when I see terms like that in a dictionary I quit the application and uninstall.

Terms in appleScript should be written to be consistent with the English-like syntax.  Developers should be wary of terminology conflicts, but  polluting the namespace is not the solution.
