So when one can expect (if ever) to get consistent naming for ubuntu-
core-apps.

This bug is nearly 3 years old.

Bug description:
  The names of the Ubuntu Core packages are inconsistant.
  Here is the list of packages available from "touch-core" package:
     ubuntu-calculator-app
     calendar-app
     ubuntu-clock-app
     ubuntu-weather-app
     ubuntu-filemanager-app
     rssreader-app
     ubuntu-terminal-app
     sudoku-app
     stock-ticker-mobile-app
     dropping-letters
     reminders-app
     music-app
  I think it should have common naming convention (for example "ubuntu-<appname>-app" )

  The similar situation is with Core application executables.
  For example to run Calculator you must type command:
     ubuntu-calculator-app
  But to run calendar app  you must specify following command:
    calendar-app
  I think it should be similar names  (for example "ubuntu-<appname>-app"  or "touch-<appname>-app")

  The package touch-coreapps is confusing for novice users. I think is
  should have similar name as core apps  (for example "ubuntu-core-apps"
  )
