Let's talk about a concrete case.

Changes I'd make to use Ben taxonomy:

* In the schedule section s/Sugar/Sucrose
* Split the moduleset section in Glucose moduleset and Fructose moduleset.
* In the tickets session s/Sugar core/Fructose. Or perhaps two items,
Glucose tickets and Fructose tickets.

How does it sound? Alternative proposals?
