gedit is becoming more of a programmer's editor, so the gedit team wants to

So the thing is, gedit has been called for "Text Editor" in many
distributions. Excluding gedit and refer to a new text editor will
make majority of users confuse.
I agree with the fact that we need a simpler text editor, but let's
just call it as "Textpad" or something....... without excluding gedit.
"Rhythmbox" and "Shotwell" are not core apps, they're third-party apps.
"Music" and "Photos" are the entirely core apps, and they're not based on
Rhythmbox and Shotwell for various reasons that I don't fully understand
myself.

Hi,
I find that some applications are showing their real names, e.g.,
gedit, Rhythmbox, Shotwell.
However, some applications are showing generic names, e.g., Files
(Nautilus), Web (Epiphany), Archive Manager (File Roller).
Can anyone elaborate on this?
