This was a major motivation for the `seq` and `map` packages, and maybe
we should keep doing that with more things (e.g. add a `list` package
where all the list functions get a new name using the `list` prefix, or
add a `process` package were all the process related primitives are
given a "process-"prefix, ...).

Yes, and given we can make aliases to the old names we don't break backward compatibility, and we can reasonably easily write something that converts existing code to the new names, and eventually deprecate the old names :-)

Kind regards,
