[drupal-devel] New module nameing.

I've written a new module and would like other module devels to give me
their opinion.

This module allows editing of the help messages for any page on a drupal
site from within the administration pages.

Right now I have it named "helpdb".  From a technical point, sure the name
describes that it adds a database back-end to the help system.  But, its
not a pretty name.  I was thinking maybe "help_edit".  What do you guys
think?

Are there any conventions to nameing modules other than all lowercase and
underscores instead of spaces?  I see in the current module list that some
patterns are emerging (like taxonomy_ and node_), but is anything
enforced?

Thanks,

Aran
