 * Would it be a good idea to use my own functions instead of Codex, then create
   a reference file where my functions call Codex? It would create a single point
   between a WordPress Extension and WordPress. If WordPress then changed the name
   of a function, who ever was updating my extension would only have to change one
   line, instead of finding every occurrence of that function name within all of
   the extension files.
 *     ```
       function my_function ($info) {
       wp_function($info);
       }
       ```
   
 * Pros? Cons?
