anatomical cluster #3280

Uberon term anatomical cluster

Bug description At least Foundational Model of Anatomy and xenopus_anatomy see the term anatomical cluster to refer to an anatomical structure (which is a single connected 3D shape). On the other hand Uberon defines anatomical cluster as disconnected anatomical group which is not connected.

Having two completely distinct meanings for the same upper ontology term in anatomy seems to be bound to cause a lot of confusion.

One solution would be to rename "anatomical cluster" into "disconnected anatomical cluster".
