Good point. We have discussed updating the names too because of the
confusion the old names create. The drawback is that doing this requires
changes to existing scripts that use radpwtst and any existing Radiator
modules or hooks that do not come with Radiator (own custom code).

The change could be applied to just radpwtst, but likely it would be
less confusing to change them both.

I'll see when to get this in the patches.

Thanks,
Heikki
