Well, I have to disagree there, particularly when the "er" 
version of things is much more indicative of what's actually 
going on (a series of constructor calls, really - they're just 
done via wrapper functions). I can get behind the "asXxx" scheme 
when the "xxxer" scheme doesn't fit, but in general, I think that 
going with the "xxxer" scheme fits in very well with what's 
actually going on and will thus actually help make the code 
clearer, whereas I really don't think that that's the case with 
"xxxed".
