I'm talking about new versions of the public APIs that get proposed, not
existing ones. Within the codebase, it would be great to use a single
term "state" for this, prefixed with a refining descriptor like
"power_", "task_", etc. But that's a lesser concern for me than our next
generation REST APIs.
