If we're renaming write-..., we should also consider renaming
read-... to get a matching pair (or at least avoid having a
non-matching one). Choices:
1. display / read
2. put / get
3. output / input
4. out / in
5. push / pull
(I'm in favor of #2.)
Please also consider the names of `read' and `write', relating to
this. (And the sound of pronouncing "xxx/xxx invariance.")
1. read / write (awkward with #1)
2. read-datum / write-datum (ditto)
3. <write-prefix>-datum / <read-prefix>-datum (for choices #2-#5)
4. <write-prefix> / <read-prefix>
(I'm in favor of #3.)
I'm also thinking these two should be in a separate library.
