well, it is not consistent when looking at functions versus methods. The best 
example here is hasattr() versus dict.has_key().

Overall I agree with your proposal to use a consistent naming style. Whatever 
it may turn out to be. We have done the same when we started with Zope 3 and 
while having some few inconsistencies, the overall code base benefitted a 
lot, I think.
