We already have something called "module interfaces" -- it's the generated interface view that you can see in Xcode, the interface that's meant for developers using a library. Of course, that's also a textual format. To reduce confusion, rename the new module stability feature to "parseable [module] interfaces".

I can see us still changing the name of the Xcode feature too (I liked "module view" or "module interface view") but for now let's just change the new thing.

Actually, i prefer "Module View" for it's being shorter. @akyrtzi What do you think?

I like "Module View" as well. It allows representing something that is not necessarily a textual dump of source code.
