This ticket is based on a discussion that took place here:

The goal was to allow someone to alias the Feature identifier text so that you could use other terms in place of "Feature". The currently proposed terms were:

Business Need
Ability

The idea is that instead of this:

Feature: Ability to Generate Reports

You could do this:

Ability: Generate Reports

The rationale was to allow a bit of flexibility in naming this particular root-level identifier because Feature is a very broad term and often the "feature" files are much more granular than a feature.
