"debugger console" windows' names

Why are there two windows essentially named "debugger console" in xcode? This seems a trifle ambiguous. Am I missing something in the naming scheme? If you select "Standard I/O Log" from the Debug menu, the window that comes up is titled "Debugger Console", and this is how you typically interact with your program (on the command-line) in the debugger.

However, if you choose "Console Log" from the debugger menu, you get a window titled "<project-name> - Debugger Console". THIS window is where you can interact directly with gdb. ie, command-line gdb. Such as for printing globals that xcode's gui handily ignores.

Now, to my way of thinking, the term "Debugger console" applies just fine to the second description. It seems to me, however, that the first window should have a title, "Stdio" or "Standard I/O", or "Std" or even "<executable name> console".

So, is this changed in xcode 2, should I file a feature request, or am I missing something in the logic of this naming convention?
