Hey, that'd be great... if they provide pictures to go along with the part
names, like Partsref. In the meantime, Partsref seems to me to be the most
useful thing out there to make sure we're all talking about the same part.
Lego can call these parts anything they want, IMO, as long as the picture's
correct; we'll just use our names, and they'll use theirs (proprietary,
probably). I have no worries about the way I list elements on my Lego Direct
wants page (by Partsref number and name), because I know LD can just use the
Partsref database to see what I'm talking about.
