Description

Rationale:

The current name "Filelist" is somewhat unclear and has a "Denglish" (German-English) feel, which might not resonate well with an international audience.

The module's functionality is focused solely on managing media and downloads, not arbitrary files.

Aligns with naming conventions in widely used CMSs like Drupal and WordPress, where similar functionality is grouped under the term "Media".

Improves usability and discoverability for users familiar with other systems or general media handling.

Proposed Change:

Rename the module from Filelist to Media.

Update all associated documentation, labels, and paths accordingly.

I support this. Aligning UI terminology with other CMS products will lower the adoption threshold, and it's easy to understand and transition to for existing users. (Additionally, "Filelist" is not good English.)
