Prefer the term "text" over "string"?

[hollasch]

"string" was originally chosen for a data structure that holds a string of characters. It's common vernacular, so perhaps should continue to be used. However, a more accurate alternative would be "text".

There are two places where this is important: in the body and terminology of the spec, and also as the formal standard name of the data type, as in (text: a bunch of words here).
