Well, there was at least one other person who liked "track" at the time:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2007-07/msg00996.php
which gave it about as much support as any other alternative that was
mentioned :-(
While I don't have any strong objection to changing "track" to "monitor",
I'm not enthused by the other parts of your proposal. In particular
I do object to using "activity" for the variable that is specifically
*not* associated with feeding pg_stat_activity.
