As I was saying, I think the package name and call interface should not
contain "imgur" but rather that should be a symbol meaningful to the
package. So instead of:
(defun imgur-upload-image (image &optional datap)
"Upload IMAGE to imgur and return the resulting imgur URL. [...]
We'd have:
(defun larsuploader-upload-image (image service &optional datap)
"Upload IMAGE to SERVICE and return the resulting URL. [...]
...which can then support Imgur and the *hundreds* of others out there.
Testing that package will be a huge pain.
