FWIW I agreed with Lean but then I've read this:

> No, the same inconsistency exists - registerPaint("foo", ...) would define a paint-foo() CSS function.
> To avoid it we'd have to require that you put a paint- prefix on your painter name, like registerPaint("paint-foo", ...).

I think this is a very compelling reason to keep it this way. The API will most likely be (ab)used in JS land anyway, and I think justifying there "redundant" prefixes would result in bad UX.
