HAST: file name consistency

Just curious:  why is the config file called hast.conf, but all the RC vars
and scripts use hastd?  Shouldn't it all be "hastd" or all "hast"?

For example, if the rc script is hastd, the rcvar is hastd_enable, shouldn't
the config file be called hastd.conf, and the control program called
hastdctl?

Or, if the config file is hast.conf and the control program is hastctl,
shouldn't the rcvar and script be just hast/hast_enable?

Just seems strange to have some things called "hast" and other things called
"hastd" when it's all the same program/setup.

Perhaps I'm being too pedantic?
