[Bf-committers] creating a dictionary of terms ...

[Campbell Barton]

Would be nice to have this in the new manual, some central "Glossary
of Terms" to help demystify the jargon in 3D.

But try limit it to terms specific to Blender, or that have a special
meaning in Blender (other terms users can check a dictionary or search
online).
