Puh, that will be a hard one, as audio applications tend to be very
different, not only in terminology. Pd doesn't know "sessions" or
"bank", Ardour doesn't now "messages" or "bang"s, AMS doesn't know
about "tracks", all because those things aren't used by them. One
could try to make the naming in similar apps the same, like in Ardour
and MuSE, but they already are most of the time.

I sincerly don't understand what you are talking about here. ;(
Maybe you could explain with an example? But maybe we just think
different when thinking of samplers...
