Comment (by eclare):

 I agree that changing (or adding aliases) the function names may not be
 worth it, although it might be worth it to change the terminology in the
 Codex, like you both suggested. I'm voting for that option.

 Aside from developers, the end user sees the CPT phrase mostly in plugins
 - and a lot of them, actually: SEO plugins, Sitemap plugins, Analytics
 plugins etc. etc... So it's not uncommon, even though there's no "custom
 post" string in the WP translation string (both admin and front-end).

 If we settle on changing the terminology and not the function names, can
 someone just push this to the Docs groups and we're done with it? And any
 other appropriate groups.
