[C++-sig] Silly naming question

 As I revise the class_<> interface to use object instead of handle<>, I
came across

    .setattr("name", obj)

and I'm just wondering if the name "bind" wouldn't be more appropriate here
than a tweaky abbreviation like setattr:

    .bind("name", value)

I'm mildly +1 on this change before we release the library.

Other votes?
