Question: Should "internal users" be renamed to "internal accounts"  #2842

Description

@stephen-crawford

As part of the extension support work, service accounts were added to the Security Plugin. These accounts live inside the internal users configuration and make use of the same APIs.

However, when speaking with Ka Ming who has helped designed many of the UX/UI elements for the Security Plugin, they brought up the point that perhaps it would be more appropriate to rename these objects to "internal accounts."

If this seems like a good idea, we will need to look at the usage of the internal users throughout the plugin and determine the best place to swap things over. It may be most appropriate to simply swap the dashboards text and introduce a secondary API for the new naming. We won't be able to swap to a new naming scheme entirely until 3.0.0 because this would cause breaks in existing automatic calls systems.
