As we gear up for the upcoming CentOS 7 release, we're tracking a few
things for the CentOSPlus kernel as well. One of the proposals (via
http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=6828 ) is that we change the current
name of the centosplus kernel to be a bit more consistent with other
kernel names. The proposed new name would look like 'kernel-plus' or
'kernel-centosplus'. This is in keeping with other kernel names such as
'kernel-ml', 'kernel-xen', 'kernel-lt' etc. And allows for
/etc/sysconfig/kernel to be used to set the DEFAULTKERNEL as desired.

kernel-plus sounds good. I think it would help deal with bugs a bit better. kernel-centosplus is a bit long but might be clearer in case a downstream wants to have its own plus kernel.
