No, there isn't (for example, pg_stat_backend_id() versus
current_schema() -- or pg_get_viewdef() versus obj_description() ).
Now that we have table functions, we might be using more built-in
functions to provide information to the user -- so there will be
an increasing need for some kind of naming convention for built-in
functions. However, establishing a naming convention without
breaking backwards compatibility might be tricky.
Cheers,
