Could please eieio-oref/eieio-oset be avoided? oref/oset are so often
used that people will start aliasing them anyways.
How about replacing eieio-, the most awkward prefix in existence, with
simple "eo-", standing for Emacs Objects? Then eoref/eoset can be used
as (almost) namespace clean alternatives.
