I think it totally makes sense to avoid this kind of terminology.
The whole linux plattform will move away from Blacklist and Whitelist:

Alternatives are denylist/allowlist and blocklist/passlist.

Thumbs down - everyone using this service should know what a whitelist and a blacklist are. Please do not implement this feature request.
