I'm very tempted to rename a handful of badly named (imho) functions. If this will overly ruffle feathers, let me know and I won't do it. I know such things are sometimes viewed as detrimental. I view it as "helping new developers not have the pain I have of function names that don't communicate well to me". I'm thinking of things like find_window_number(), which does not find the window number but finds the window whose number is. By way of example, I would rename that function find_window_by_number(). Of course, I don't plan to do this as a big project, but rather as I get annoyed enough with a name, I'll submit a single patch for that single name.
