There could be different spells for summoning people or things. Does anyone know?

  But when Mrs. Weasley did repeated "Accio!" on the ton-tongue-toffees
  and other inventions of the Weasleys in the Weasley-kitchen - would she
  risk ripping the clothes of the twins if they happened to be wearing
  clothes with magical properties?

  We learn in GoF, when they practise banishing-charms, that it works on
  humans (Neville missed his pillow, instead hitting Professor Flitwick,
  who flew across the classroom landing on top of a cupboard).  I would
  suspect that banishing and summoning works on the same basic theory,
  but applying it differently - thus summoning will work on people when
  banishing works on people.  I think this is probably more a question
  about the ability to focus your thoughts - the words uttered are most
  likely only a tool to help focus.  Do take note - a banishing-charm,
  when used on a human, could be used very easily to murder someone (push
  them of a cliff, for instance).
