This can be changed easily, if requested.
You register a script for the dispatcher like this:

t3lib_extMgm::addModulePath('xMOD_tximpexp',t3lib_extMgm::extPath($_EXTKEY).'app/');

So the name could be changed, but I do not know for what reason it was
chosen this way and I also don't care about the naming here.

Just look into typo3/mod.php

It only does some file inclusions and then requires the index.php
according to the name given in the M GET parameter (if such a name was
registered like above).

Btw. many modules in the core act like this, unfortunately not all, but
this is subject to change (towards using the dispatcher).
