It appears to be at best ambiguous.  Common usage historically has referred to Butterworth filters as including the phase shift, but some sources do not mention this.

Consequently, I suggest that we use the unambiguous terminology "0 phase butterworth" in the description, so user's won't be expecting the phase shifts.

I suggest:
Plugin Name: Filter Low Pass
Description: Zero phase Butterworth
----
Input Vector - Y: C1-GYRO1   (ie, not "X-Array")
Input Scalar - Order: [           ] 
Input Scalar - Cutoff Freq/Samp Rate [       ] (ie, not "Cutoff Frequency")
----
Output Vector - Filtered [         ]  (ie, not "X Filtered")

and similar for the other filters....
