So this is a totally bicycle shed discussion argument which makes it
seriously irritating.
Does it really matter so much how this structure is called?
Essentially, it is something to build your tunables structure around
and you can treat it as a counterpart of a C++ abstract class. So the
name *does* make sense in that context.
That said, what about gov_attr_set?
