Rename element(Open, OpenStart, Void, Close) about incremental-dom HOT 4 CLOSED

Maybe you could do something like:

my_thing.js

export {
  elementOpen as o,
  elementClose as c,
  ...
} from 'incremental-dom';

import { o as open, c as close } from 'my_thing';

and save even more bytes. If you use Incremental DOM in more than a few files (and you don't have mangling like Closure Compiler provides), you will probably out ahead compared to incremental DOM naming it open rather than elementOpen.

Depending on how you are bundling, the index.js of incremental DOM might just be optimized out entirely.

I wouldn't worry about the file size here, but ease of use. I've written openElement more than a few times.

Any name we choose would be problematic for someone. I have had problems with text being shadowed by a local variable named text. Open and close are likewise very generic and could collide with someone's open or close functions. ES6 is really nice in that it gives you the power to rename in the import statement itself to avoid these issues.

Ultimately the code is not intended to be written by hand so the naming is pretty arbitrary and you can rename it to suit your needs. Given that, I don't see a compelling reason to change what the library exports just to change it.
