I'd very much like to see functional renamed to functools, and I've cooked up the necessary changes to handle the move (SF #1478788).

+1 since there are utilities like "decorator" and "deprecated" which belong in such a module, but don't fit within the "functional programming" meme suggested by the current name.

If we're happy with the name change, I can make sure this change goes in before alpha 3 (probably sooner, to make it easier for anyone interested to work on a patch for @decorator).

Cheers, Nick.
