At least, currently there is consistency in naming of
image-transform-* functions and variables.  Whether
selecting such a prefix was a good choice is another question.

But if you see a problem only in the name of image-transform-original,
then it could be renamed to image-transform-set-original or maybe
better to image-transform-reset-to-original, i.e. to something more
descriptive, while keeping the existing name prefix.

PS: renaming to image-transform-reset-to-original will also require
renaming image-transform-reset to image-transform-reset-to-initial.
