I liked 'manage' better as well but it's also extremely generic, so
the moment we started writing data outside the source directory it
was automatically off the table.

Neither of the other names is particularly useful, they're just
names but at least they're both fairly unique and reasonably easy
to remember. I think that 'licito' is a very fair name, and using
it would definitely not be illegal :P

So if your only argument against it is that you don't like it very
much, my reply is that I do like it quite a bit and, well, I get to
name the programs I write :)
