I think this is somewhat analogous to the JavaBean convention:

setName()
setAddress()
getName()
getAddress()

have both a shared meaning (get retrieves and is safe, set is (like  
PUT) idempotent and mutating), as well as a specific meaning (what do  
they set).

Not entirely the same, but somewhat similar - the shared knowledge  
enables tools such as IDEs to offer some generic functionality,  
similar to HTTP proxies which could cache the result of GETs.
