THe intention is to use them as the name of the mode and the command
to select it.  For instance, the command could be M-x ebook-view-mode.
That is where we need names that are clear to the user.

The file name does not have to be the same as that.
We don't need file names to be obvious to the user.

I understand the issue, but since the file prefix can be different
from (and shorter than) the name of the mode, it isn't as bad as it
seems.

Meanwhile, Joao is working on a symbol renaming feature which might
make things more convenient.
