There are concerns that the terms "whitelist" and "blacklist" prolong racial stereotypes. Also they are not as expressive as they could be for our purposes. I therefore suggest to rename the connector options using the two terms into these:
- database.include.list
- database.exclude.list
- table.include.list
- table.exclude.list
- column.exclude.list
- field.exclude.list
As desupporting the current option names would be highly disruptive to existing users, they will remain functional until a future version, but only the new option names will be used in documentation, examples etc. Using the old names will cause a WARN message to be logged.
We'll also replace "master/slave" with "primary/replica" when describing DB topologies in the docs and logs.
