But you don't understand me!  function names are a great part of the
interface of emacs.  I never use the menu (first thing in my ~/.emacs
is (mapc (lambda (f) (funcall f -1)) 
        '(menu-bar-mode scroll-bar-mode tool-bar-mode))
).  Command names (that is function names) are a big part of the my
interactive interface with emacs, thru M-x.
