As much as I would personally like to get rid of the prefixes, it seems
to me that unless you move _most_ of cl-, you'll only increase the
confusion. Now it's just setf, that's easy to remember, but with more
exceptions one would have to check if a particular form is or isn't
supposed to be used with the prefix all the time (albeit with the help
of the byte compiler).

Considering your proposal in particular, what about shiftf, rotatef?
What makes them different?
