This seems like it is reaching critical mass (a good thing) and perhaps at
this point a dedicated newsgroup should be created for this (i.e., efforts
to standardize parts nomenclature).

How does

  lugnet.db.brictionary

sound?

Sounds good.  Right place in the hierarchy.

I wouldn't quite put it beneath lugnet.db.inv because inventories are just
one possible application of parts names.

And it's not actually part names, but a parts identification database,
right?  Having standard/prefered names is good, but it's the pictures (and
maybe schematics) that actually identify the part.

Not to overwhelm kl.net, but if a piece can be indentified in an old manual
that has been scanned maybe a DB field could mention that. Doesn't have to
be a direct link, but it might be a good common reference point.
