[development] Drupal 5, machine/human readable node type names

It seems that the human verses machine readable names of node types has been
blurred.

For example, in D5, go to admin/content/types and select "story". Now, in
the "identification" field set, change "Name" (human readable name) to "John
Doe's stories" and leave "Type" (machine-readable name) alone.

You'll see the human readable name gets escaped to "John Doe's
stories". Imho, that's a machine readable string and not human readable
(yes, humans can read it, but you get what I'm saying)
