And I'd say "don't touch" :-) (take it as a -0)
I agree common conventions is good. And agree that we might want to set one
convention from here onwards.
But can we please do it without breaking backwards compatibility (or
possibly generating a lot of deprecated methods?).

I'd suggest to put effort where (at least personally I feel it's) more
valuable, like helping users, writing docs, fixing bugs... but of course,
it's just me :-p

Cheers
Andrea
