While we're making a list: 'Junk' vs. 'Junk E-mail' is a particular problematic case of client disagreement because some clients (e.g. Eudora, Outlook) work in ways that are Very Bad when they disagree on the final destination of probable spam.
Correct me if I am wrong; however, there is no RFC specifically detailing the naming of folders. If there is no specification in place, the author of a software application is pretty much free to do as they please. The interesting fact is that while you claim that clients like 'Eudora & Outlook' are bad, the users of said clients might very well consider your choice of MUA to be inferior.
