Agreed. However, my definition of "better" is based on "what will
most of the library maintainers be happier to use?" In this case, if
we had "interactive-form" and they "function-interactive", I'd go
with
"interactive-form", definitely.
But if it's just a small difference (say, "interactive-specification",
which is more precise and thus better than "interactive-form"), I'd
say go with GNU's terminology, and obsolete ours, because that causes
less annoyance for people porting for GNU to XEmacs.
