My impression is that people know and expect it to follow Cocoa (and not
OpenStep).
They have much larger problems with installation and/or packages in
distributions.
And from my brand management experience: if you ever have a problem with a
brand, fix the value proposition, communication and quality and don't change
the name... That will even remove the tree you are sitting on.
Just my 2 ct.
