Using a naming based on the type of the arguments is a different
convention than the one proposed here.  We're proposing to use
a *prefix* to group functions that are "related" by that prefix.
It doesn't have to do with the type of the return value or the type of
an argument.  E.g. `match-string` doesn't take any regexp as argument
but I'd be happy to put it under the `regexp-` or `re-` prefix
(e.g. `regexp-submatch`).
