What if we defined many of the more common device types such as outlets,
lighting controls, thermostats, and the like.  We can have minimum
definitions of things such as on, off and status for an outlet, but that is
not to say that a module couldn't include some extended functions as well
like the functions Lieven described.  Having a minimum set of defined
functions would allow the building of things like the web based touch screen
interface that I am working on and easily be able to control common
functions of certain types of devices without having to decipher code from
say 4 different thermostats to change the heating set point just because
someone called the SUB change_heat_setpoint in one module and set_SP_heat in
another.

Like I say, this is not an effort to limit modules in how they are set up or
what functions they have.  It is merely to define a set of BASE functions
for objects that have common sub/function names to keep commonality to the
most common device type functions.
