An alternative (not talking about TCL 8.5 here), would be to
go the gdb_caching_proc way.  That is, something like:

proc prefixed_proc {name body} {
...
}

.. and then define the procs that you want to prefix with
prefixed_proc instead of proc.

But either way is fine with me.

I mildly dislike using the proc names as prefix strings as it feels 
like implementation details leaking, but as long as the proc names are 
clear enough, I won't really complain about it.  Who knows, I may even 
grow to like it.  :-)

"Setting".

This is OK as is with the typo fixed.
