[TYPO3-v4] Consensus on guidelines for class names and method names

[Jigal van Hemert]

Hi,

Lately a lot of discussion is spent on names of classes and methods. 
This is very useful to get the API in a decent state, but it could 
probably be more efficient to make list of possible classes (even if 
they do not yet exist) to prevent the same discussions happening over 
and over again.

Also the naming of methods is a common subject of discussion. There is a 
recent trend to make longer names, which should be more descriptive.
There are bad examples for old function names, but unfortunately also 
for new method names.

I realize that strict rules cannot be made, but maybe we can build a 
list of bad examples with good alternatives?

So:
1. A list of potential new classes (with explanation of the type of 
methods in them)

2. Examples of bad method/function names and good alternatives
