I had started to do that with the name of the functions:

The ff_link_* functions are meant to be used by filters. Now, I realize
I would like to rename them ff_inlink_* for the ones in this patch
series, that are used by the filters on their input links, and call
ff_outlink_* the ones for their output links.

The *_to_filter functions are the implementation of the default activate
callback, i.e. the callback that wraps the current filter_frame /
request_frame callbacks. This is not entirely consistent, I should
probably make a few cosmetic patches to rename them and group them.

I suppose you have no objection to having functions meant for filters
used by the core too if they fit the need exactly?

Do you have a suggested name for a separate header?

As for that, I also intend to rewrite most of doc/filter_design.txt once
I have a reasonably clear view of the final shape, i.e. when at least a
few filters are written in the new design. A lot of it is long obsolete
anyway.
