My vote goes for Rack.
I don't really have a strong opinion, but I can tell you what helped
me when I looked at Transwarp the first time: Coming from ZPatterns,
recognizing a "Specialist" and instantaneously knowing what it does.
I immediately started looking for "Rack". I didn't take me that long
to figure out that it has become something else, but I still had
to figure :)
