No matter what race your civ is, when the merchant caravan comes, they will refer to you as 'stout dwarves'. Instead of this, maybe they could say the actual name of your civ race, preceded by a random verb.

A sphere-related adjective would probably be better, but this is a good idea.  Already planned though, I think.  I at least know there are plans to be able to play multiple civs with vanilla DF eventually.

I suspect that Toady intends to overhaul and expand communications with other people, leaders, civilizations and so on at some point (because there's really a lot more to it than just that one line.)  So my guess would be that this is waiting on that; a lot of existing dialogs and such are probably placeholders, or at least they'll eventually be enhanced with whatever is used for communications with other civs.

While we're at it, maybe the game should be renamed to "[Random Noun] Fortress".

Cat fortress.

Huh, pity you can't adventure as a cat without turning cats into a civilization first.  The game needs a tag that simply forces availability as an adventurer without any other changes.
