About the naming conventions I propose to add something in the beginning of 
the name of the function that shows which eclass the function belongs to, 
just like eutils does e.g. - So I'd vote for something like 'pm_echovar' (pm_ 
= perl-module) just to avoid naming collisions.

Sure.. why not. - Wouldn't that be something for eutils btw?
