Maybe I already ask, is there any coding style recommendation for _new_
written things?

I agree with Bruce. The list functions and a lot of other functions
can be candidates for rename. I read Mono docs last night and
it's perfect if they can write to docs about functions names:
"mono_<type>_<action>".

I think sometime are people too much focus on the shortest way to
target and forgot that with code work others people and not CPU only.
