Hi,

telling the future is hard.
Concerning the present state, I'd say programm should follow certain 
rules, meet expectations.

Which one is hard to say again. So it's rather my personal view: if a 
forward- function exists, I expect a backward-.

If hide-something exists I expect show-something.

And so on.

With Emacs in general it's better to expect the uncommon rather than the 
common, but why not have both?

Yours

Andreas
