So just use function names instead of symbols? I think, in general,
it's nice to have things like nil/t in variables like this -- it's
easier for users to deal with.
Anyway, I agree that cleaning up this area by introducing a new variable
and obsoleting the slightly confusing current state of affairs would be
nice.
