Are we going with Create?

Thought we were going with the term swatches because it is used by various
existing applications and the term palettes is sometimes use to describe a
particular type of dialog expected to be left showing onscreen.

Assuming what we have conforms with established standards can we have a
some kind of a vote on this and get a solid sense of agreement.  (the vote
is intened as a show of hands to prove we are largley in agreement and
have an adequate compromise rather than forcing anything on anyone)

I feel things are coming close to a conclusion and avoid getting stuck
with an interim solution.  I'd like to see things rounded off before we
try and address fonts, mostly because I'm not the best at finishing things
so I'm acutely aware of the imporance of finishing this.
