The docker image is labeled all-in-one but we call the executable jaeger-standalone and that's how it is included in the binary distributions. I propose we change the executable to be called all-in-one as well.
We can probably even rename the source directory to cmd/all-in-one, since the package name there is main anyway.
let's keep releasing jaeger-standalone until we release 2.0? I'm pretty sure there are people who are directly using all-in-one.
everyone should be using versioned releases, so if we rename it in 1.7 it's not going to break anyone unless people explicitly upgrade.

Specifically, we're talking about renaming the binary, which you can ONLY download from a concrete version (unlike Docker images where we, mistakenly, published tag "1")
Funny, I thought about opening an issue some time ago about this, but in the other direction: instead of "all-in-one", standardizing on "standalone".
I think picking one name is more important than which name, but I think all-in-one is a bit more accurate and, more importantly, backwards compatible - there are many blog posts that refer to it already.
For the record, I have nothing against all-in-one. I just find it easier to type "standalone" instead :-)
