> lgstring-char is an internal function, why do we care about its name?

That's a surprising answer: Imagine the author of `markdown-mode` were
to define a function `lgstring-foo`.  We don't disallow it, but we
strongly discourage such things.  Whether the function is "internal" to
the package or not doesn't make a difference to the fact that we do care
about its name.

So I think the better answer is that we just decided to use a separate
"lgstring-" prefix for those functions.
