[cross-project-issues-dev] Feature user-readable name

To feature maintainers:

Since p2 now allows users to search features per name (see attached image), you may want to verify that the user readable name given to your feature allows for its easy discovery. What I have seen working is the presence of your project acronym (e.g. GEF), or some typical keywords describing your domain (e.g. Ruby, Web, etc.)).

What is particularly bad is when the acronym ends up revealing something that is not what you want. For example, typing GMF has the unfortunate result of revealing the "Third party components for GMF" instead of revealing the real thing to install which may cause the user some confusion.
