[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider
        [ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies,
        [ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example.

Changing text in a buffer is a very important part of Emacs.
Thus, I think applying a naming convention to all functions
with side effects is absurd in the context of Emacs.
