I'm not a native speaker, but I feel that "spend" would be a
wrong choice.
fetchFront was proposed by Dmitry, which I like more than
spendFront, but slightly less than consumeFront.
By the way, I don't have any associations from the above. Consume
is widely used in everyday life, and it should not be a problem
that there are various uses.
As for introducing a new concept, it looks like that would be
necessary any way, because existing concepts correspond to
something different :) For example, that was my original
motivation to vote against takeFront.
