Paul Moore <p.f.mo...@gmail.com> added the comment: Well spotted! I missed that when I checked. I will add tests and documentation.
I agree that generic is better. I only left it as it was because the original intent was simply to move the existing code - but that's not a particularly good reason for keeping a clumsy name. There shouldn't be a clash, as any more general mechanism can either be in its own module or the existing function can be extended in a compatible manner. I'll make this change too.
