For me the above is ok as it goes in line with what we currently have. But I was not
aware that Jonathan was not 100% with that naming :). So, *data_stream_enable() also
seems like a good fit to me (and I agree it's more clear about the intent of the
function). To sum it up, I'm fine with either option.
