+% Rationale for primitives prefixing.
+%
+% 1. All current macro packages run smoothly on top of pdf(e)TeX, so those
+% primitives are left untouched.
+% 2. Other non-TeX82 primitives in LuaTeX may cause name clashes with existing
+% macros in macro packages, especially when the use very "natural" names
+% such as \outputbox, \mathstyle etc. Such a probability for name clashes is
+% highly undesirable if LuaTeX is to replace pdfTeX as the default engine
+% some day, and still undesirable even if it does not, anyway, since some
+% level of compatibility never hurts.
+% 3. The LuaTeX team refused to apply a systematic prefixing policy, but
+% kindly provided a tool allowing to apply it. So we chose to use it.
+% 4. The 'luatex' prefix was chosen since it is already used as a prefix for
+% some primitives, such as \luatexversion: since way, those promitive don't
+% end up with a double prefix (see tex.enableprimitive in the luatex manual
+% for details).
+% 5. The \directlua primitive is provided both with its natural name (allowing
+% to easily detect LuaTeX-besed formats) and a prefixed version
+% \luatexdirectlua (for consistency with \luatexlatelua).
+% 6. Various remarks
+% (a) The obvious drawback of such a prefixing policy is that the names used
+% by LaTeX or generic macro writer won't match the names used in the
+% manual. We hope this is compensated by the gain in backwards
+% compatibility.
+% (b) All primitives dealing with Unicode math already begin with \U, and
+% maybe will match the names of XeTeX primitives some day, so maybe
+% prefixing was not necessary/desirable for them. However, we tried to
+% make the prefixing rule as simple as possible, so that point (a) doesn't
+% get too annoying.
+% (c) The final name of some primitive may sound strange, namely those
+% already containing the name of an engine, such as \luatexOmegaVersion.
+% However, since LuaTeX is not a drop-in replacement for Omega/Aleph, we
+% felt it wrong to provide \OmegaVersion.
+% (d) Maybe some day we'll realise that it is better to provide all
+% primitives without prefixing at all, after all. If this happens, it will
+% be easy to add the unprefixed primitives in the format while keeping the
+% prefixed names for compatibility. It wouldn't work the other way round
+% (ie, realising that we should not provide the unprefixed primitives
+% would cause huge compatibility problems for all LuaTeX-specific macro
+% packages).
