>Chunking by textual grouping is great. Sometimes that is totally enough

Agreed, but much prefer object-first vs. verb first:

owner_info_get(...)

Having 600 methods that start w/"get" and 450 that start with "set" doesn't help docs or autocomplete. I remember the Win32 API books were organized alphabetically and it would have been comical if it weren't so useless.
