I think I agree with this. We decided to go for the "Draft" name to
align with GitHub terminology. But if our usage of it is different
than how people often use the feature in GitHub it seems better to
have a different name.

How about we rename "Drafts" to "Parking Lot" (as originally proposed
for the name) and add a "Draft" tag as an option to handle the "this
is not finished, but I'd love some feedback anyway" situation?
