Log:
  Replace "user land", which, for any definition of the word "user",
  sounds like some kind of horrific theme park.  "Hey kids, want to go to
  User Land?"  "No!  We'll be good!"
  
  The obvious replacement is "userland", a compound word replete with
  term-of-art meaning and just a hint of cautionary tale.  The alternate
  terms "flugelhorn" and "bullfrog", while also good, are less well-known
  and were voted down in committee.
