In my opinion, just renaming the functions doesn't make much sense. Instead we might consider to introduce OO wrappers, which wouldn't unnecessarily polute the global namespace, and also could lead to more concise userland code. Kalle's gdobjects[1] might serve as a base. On the other hand, such OO wrappers could also be implemented in userland, what might already have been done.
