OMG, I didn't think about the crazy hotkey muscle memory I'm going to have to break if we change ;)

Jim, in your best politician voice, you didn't actually answer the question, but it sounds like you see more real-world confusion over upload/download than read/write. So I'm going to put down "the senator from the midwest prefers read/write" unless you move to strike... :)
