Changed in v2:
- Fix typo
- Add macro docs
- Clarify that $VERB is always last in function/macro names
Hmm, so what do we do if there is an object, an action, and a subject?
Typically accessors which are designed to return some specific part of
the object. For example,
virQEMUCapsGetDefaultMachine
\ / | \ /
object | subject
|
`- action (verb)
Are we supposed to name such function as virQEMUCapsDefaultMachineGet?
While it is certainly possible, it just doesn't read well.

P.S. No nit-picking intended, I'm just trying to avoid future flames on
this matter.
