I think that flow-id is confusing. This id has nothing to do with flow,
it can aggregate multiple commands and it is not associated with a
specific user flow.
Correlation-Id is a common name for such Id, we took it from the
terminology used in JMS queues, but Microsoft and Oracle are using CID too.

but all of those conform to the concept of an "id" uniquely identifies
the correlation. in our case, it is not unique, and just a label the
user sets.
