Random Thought on /Regen

May I propose changing the Mez protection power's name from Integration to Homeostasis?
I've never quite understood what integration had to do with becoming resistant to holds and stuff and increasing regeneration rate whereas Homeostasis seems to fit the bill for the set:

noun
1. the tendency of a system, esp. the physiological system of higher animals, to maintain internal stability, owing to the coordinated response of its parts to any situation or stimulus tending to disturb its normal condition or function.
2. Psychology. a state of psychological equilibrium obtained when tension or a drive has been reduced or eliminated.

Also, I admit, yes, I do feel bad about making two suggestion posts in such a short time, and with this being a rather plain one.

But in the end, this is a minor change that I'm not going to push too hard.

It's supposed to be the integration of your mind and body. Similar to how willpower accomplishes what it does. It's kind of the same reason why */Regen gets Dull Pain (which says that you're using "ancient techniques").

From the power description:
Quote:
You can Integrate your mind and body, making you resistant to Knockback, Disorient, Hold, Sleep, and Immobilization effects, as well as increase your regeneration rate, for as long as you can keep this toggle power active
