I totally agree.��Dummy does not tell me about the class.

Are there just 3 uses of Dummy in the core?

there are some other about Spec but I don't know what they do.�

We should either use Null �or use a specific prefix�always, so its form a consisten pattern.

DummyUIManager -> NullUIManager

But it is not a complete NULL UIManager. It does stuff, but it makes sures not to end up calling the UI (like progress bar, notifications, confirmations, etc). So, in this particular case, HeadlessUIManager is much more accurate for me than Null. In the others, Null is the most accurate for me.

From what I understand, Dummy means something different. I have using that for class names. More accurate names can be found.
I would rename:

DummyUIManager -> HeadlessUIManager
DummySystemProgressItem -> NullSystemProgressItem
DummySoundSystem -> NullSoundSystem

what do you think? do you have better names?
