I really don't care either way, but would you consider using
kernel-linux-whatever instead?


I considered it, but it's redundant and unnecessary. I'll stick with the
name choosed by upstream.

upstream?
The discussion list is linux-kernel, the mirror system of upstream is kernel.org, under linux/kernel directory. If they don't put "kernel" in filename is only because is redundant with host and directory, but in dselect^Waptitude you have not such informations.
lusers know "linux" as whole OS, not for the kernel name, so try to help
also the novice users!
