that's even before the legacy :)
I'm sure everyone will be happy for patches fixing table and business 
entity names to match what they are called today...
i'd start from vds-->host as an experiment and an obvious change.

for vds_group (cluster), and storage_pool (also [ab]used as data_center) 
it's a bit more tricky, as the right change is probably more than just a 
naming change, but let's see someone tackling vds/host first :)
