    Tom,

    Any titles would be better than what we have now.

    If I recall correctly, the title "Set 1" was originally suggested by Paul
    Moore as a way to identify the set without having to generate a
    complex title. Thus the original "Set 1" was just to be "Additional
    Operations, Set 1". I now don't remember what the title evolved
    into before it was integrated into IPP/1.1, but it most likely did
    change.

    I agree that more descriptive titles are better, as long as they are
    simple. Either of your suggestions are fine, but I would not
    recommend changing "Set 3" to "Set 1". We have been using
    the "Set" label for so long this would add significant confusion.
