Hmm. I assume the issue is that table_createslot() was already taken
for another purpose, so then when you needed another callback you went
with table_givemeslot(), and then when you needed a third API to do
something in the same area the best thing available was
table_gimmeslot(), which meant that the fourth API could only be
table_gimmegimmeslot().

Does that sound about right?
