I had the same question but it was answered to my satisfaction in
[PATCH v3 0/1].  Quoting from that:

>>> [I]f anyone wants to have function names like

Convinced me!  greadme's /just/ fine, thankyou! =:^)

(Tho purely bikeshedding I'd prefer g2readme or gen2readme.  Which FWIW 
would match my gentoo bug shortcut g2b/g2bug...)
