In principle, I agree, but...

dd_?rescue of course ;-)  just kidding.  I don't know...

I was just thinking of Joe User with a hosed disk.  He goes to FE and tries to 
find a package to help the situation: there are two with almost the same name 
and the same purpose.  Argh.

So he does what you just did: test them.  And basicaly finds out what you 
found out already: they are both useful in their own way.

I still think a single package, along with explanations in the package 
description, is the least confusing.

But I admit I can't help with the name.  Maybe just use history: which one was 
first ?

Cheers,
