If you are still looking for suggestions how about the following:

1. use-feature (perhaps what use-package should have been named)
2. configure (maybe too generic)

Right, but that is also an indication that it is wrong, because setup.el
is more general.

That would be fine, but not any better.  I suspect the complaints many
raise against the current name would still apply.

But thank you for your suggestions, this or that way.

How about setpkg so it is similar to the new setopt?

I believe there was a similar suggestion wrt. to including "pkg" or
"package" in the name, which I still do not really like, because of the
implication that the setup macro is directly related to packages.
