Care to explain the reasoning behind that suggestion?  The function
"sorts" "ref_array", so verb-object sounds like a valid construction
of a name.  All the functions externalized by the patch under
discussion follows that pattern, I think (e.g. parse-ref-filter-atom,
verify-ref-format, show-ref-array-item).

Making the API function share a common prefix is another valid
school of design; while that may justify ref-array-sort(), but if
you are going in that direction, all the others need to be renamed
along that line consistently, I would think.
