I don't see any other equivalent teminology besides my "classzone" word existing, if we standardize on "alloc_type" to only mean a classzone then I'd be fine to giveup on my wording, I don't care to retain my wording, but to me classzone sounds more self explanatory than alloc_type (though I must be biased having invented that word).
