Rename "limited" permission to "drafter", "Members" menu item to "Co-Bloggers"?

[Glen Mazza <gl...@gmail.com>]

Team, we have three permission rights when we invite someone to join a 
blog: admin (becomes a co-owner of blog, can do anything including 
delete the blog), author (can publish blog entries and moderate 
comments, but not alter the blog's design), and "limited" (can save as 
draft blog articles but can't publish them -- someone else has to review 
the draft and then publish.)  I'm wondering if we should rename 
"limited" to "drafter".  Although "drafter" as a person who writes 
drafts is not a common usage of this term, the access rights that 
"drafter" provides is clearer than "limited" and doesn't have as much a 
negative connotation to an employee assigned this role that "limited" has.

This is just a GUI change, the internal codes saved to the database in 
roller_permissions (admin, post, edit_draft) will remain the same.

Also, the menu item "Members" on our Preferences Tab (which contains 
Settings | Members | Pings | Maintenance), which contains the list of 
people authorized to work on the blog along with their roles, I'm 
inclined to rename to a more active-sounding "Co-Bloggers"--or is that 
too informal?  WDYT?

Thanks,
Glen

OK, I'll keep them as-is.
