To wrap or to wrapKey ??

All,

We have a discrepancy in usage naming between WebCrypto and JOSE.

The last published WebCrypto Working Draft names the usages "wrap" and
"unwrap".

The JOSE JWK, now in last call, names the usages "wrap" and "unwrap".

However, the current WebCrypto Editor's Draft has (since July) named them
wrapKey and unwrapKey.

It would be nice if we could have alignment to avoid messy name mapping.

Should we:
(a) ask JOSE to change to "wrapKey" and "unwrapKey"
(b) revert WebCrypto to "wrap" and "unwrap"
(c) live with the mapping
