Concerning the replacement of "backend" I don't have any fixed opinion.
Concerning replacing "fltk" I would vote against "fltk_opengl", I would
prefer one of "fltk" or "opengl".
I imagine external graphical interfaces would use also use their own names. So, I propose:
backend -> "graphics"
fltk -> "internal"
For example, it seems clear to me that "graphics gnuplot" uses gnuplot. If qtoctave had it's own backend I imagine it would be enabled by "graphics qtoctave", etc. I think calling the fltk backend "graphics octave" would be confusing though--that's why I propose "graphics internal".
