Um, aren't just about all frei0r effects misspelled?
I agree. Changing the filter name will break any existing projects
using that filter unless some shim effect is added to alias that.
Also, not all GUIs directly expose each filter by their frei0r name.
Changing parameter name is not as impactful depending upon on the app,
but for cases where frei0r names are directly used, it can be
confusing or annoying if param spelling is fixed but effect name
remains same.
