The rename happened because when one of the functions was moved into
core, someone decided to rename it along the way which broke
compatibility with previous versions of pgAdmin.
Whilst I won't in any way deny that the adminpack was specifically
written for pgAdmin though, I have no problem with it being enhanced to
provide non-core functionality for other admin tools in the future... in
fact I would encourage it. I think it's better to support as many admin
tools as possible from one contrib module, rather than for each tool to
have it's own.
