Mentally, I add the prefix “communication” whenever I see references to (graphic) designers. It helps me keep what their ultimate responsibility should be in any software project: to communicate, as clearly as possible, within the chosen mediums of expression.

Ironically (as I'm sure you're aware), your comment is the perfect example of form follows function.

Maintaining this perspective of what designers are in function will probably lead to better designers (via the form of their work) overall.
