Comment (by khromov):

 I had an idea - why don't we add in filters in set/get/delete_option();
 that lets you change the option name just before it is inserted, retreived
 or deleted?

 Then it would be trivial to write a plugin that changes option names
 internally whichever way the user prefer. (For example using sc0ttkclarks
 solution).

 Such a change (adding a few filters) is unlikely to break any unit tests.

 Let me know what you think!
