For _us_ it makes perfect sense. But for someone who isn't familiar
with the concept "grace" doesn't carry much meaning. Being graceful is
something that is rather hard to say no to. Serving content that is
stale however, is something quite a lot of people would object to and
I think it should be better reflected in the naming.
