Very much agree that safe should not be used whilst sports climbing, but I dont see the need for a substitution.

"Give me some slack" is the first my belayer will hear on a sport route after I have attached the safety line, then "takle it in", then "ok" whilst motioning to lower or "ok Fred, bring me down" if they cant see me.

Have found that a few people took me off belay when I have shouted safe whilst sports climbing so I stopped using it on sports routes. Have not had a problem on trad as there is a fair pause whilst anchor building before "safe" is shouted.
