I agree with the others that "specific" doesn't really make things
better.  "Interfaces" maybe; otherwise we could go for something like
"filter" or "select".

Paint mine green :)

Whatever we end up with, I think it should be added as a synonym for
"functions".  Then the various selectors that are actually pulling out
docs for functions could be changed at leisure - or not at all.  I'd
rather not see a big patch changing everything at once.

Thanks,
