Or terminal.

But the problem with these is that they take a general term that
describes a class of programs, of which multiple instances are already
in Debian or are very likely to be in the future, and use that as the
package name.

In taking such a generic name, they seem to state: I am the one true
<whatever>. They deny the existance of other options.

If anything, apt-get install terminal (for example) should give a choice
of terminals to install. Or install a bunch.

PS: Who wants to package something called 'mail.app' for the ultimate in
confusion?
