I'm not really concerned about this either.  As long we maintain the
functionality, we're not really dumbing down anything.

I'd say:

  taxonomy module -> classification module

I am fine with that.
 

  vocabulary -> category group

Two words would be confusing, especially if category is used for term.

How about just "category" here.

  term -> category or tag

We can keep it as a term. The issue is the "vocab", not so much "term". Tag is more specific to free tagging, and may be overloading the term.
