--- Comment #1 from Andrew Fuerste-Henry <andrew at bywatersolutions.com> ---
There's a function within Koha two take two authority records and combine them
into one authority record. Koha refers to this as merging. That's a good name
for that and doesn't confuse people.

But then there's also a cron job that takes changes made to authority records
and pushes them out to bibs. Koha also refers to this as merging. This *does*
confuse people. They see a cron called "merge_authorities.pl" and assume it's
going to clean up duplicate authorities or something.

So I'd propose renaming the cron and the various system preferences that refer
to the cron, though I understand that's a change to a very well-established
Koha feature.
