Datamates UI References — Pending Rename

The VS Code extension and product screens still use the name Datamates. Until those are updated, the references below must stay as-is. Changing them would break user-facing steps (search terms, button labels, command names).

When the extension is renamed in the marketplace and the UI is updated, this file is the checklist to work through.
