Yeah, it makes sense, but it will be a slightly bigger effort.

Good idea. No idea if this will be easy to implement though :)
But after the prototype I describe in 0/7 I don't really need to
enforce if read or write is based on fentry/fmod_ret.
So I think let's not over engineer this, and stick to your initial
suggestion of the naming system which will be largely enough for my
use case.
