Re: Renaming onedimensional

Does anybody have an opinion on this?

In my mind, it's either 'linear' or 'reducible'.  How important is the
'able' ending?  Personally, I'd prefer to rename 'onedimensional' to
'linear' because it's by far the most accurate and to the point
description (a widget looking at itself in a very linear manner where the
orient does not affect behaviour, only direction).
