[drupal-docs] Customizing applications pages - was: minor correction

[Anisa]

Certainly we are aiming for consistency not more confusion.  You 
wouldn't be able to successfully search the forums with 'applications'.

Not really sure you are benefiting the end user, the individual Drupal 
Admin, by calling something an application instead of a module.  Perhaps 
when you submit the feature request, it could be done like node where in 
the Drupal install itself, a node is always referred as a post...
