Hmmm,..Good Point.  How about these lists?
http://www.answers.com/topic/list-of-invasive-species, or
http://invasivespecies.nbii.gov/projects.html

      Generally,invasive species are generally things people don't want.
And invasives are only invasives outside of their native habitat.

      Adding invasives does however, add to the pool of unusual names :-).
Kudzu, spurge, chengu,.... etc.

Do we want to imply that GDAL is endangered? Maybe an invasive species
would be more apropos, like zebra mussel or something.
