For all you Procedure-lovers out there -- how do you feel about the specialized types

IntProcedure LongProcedure etc? I think they're awful.

Worse than IntBlock and LongBlock? I'd say a little better, actually. I have an immediate sense of what IntProcedure means, but I have no intuition about IntBlock.

But, this naming rule serves us pretty well in all the other cases.

It seems reasonable here, too. I expect the specialized types to be a bit ugly, but the ugliness arises from the need for specialized types, not from the choice of stem.
