Issue description:
get_current_animation_position()
Are you seriously?
I was waiting for the compactness get_pos()
current and animation they and so will be visible from the operated in front of the point

First of all, I would suggest that you phrase your proposals in a more constructive manner. That's no "hellish syntax", that's a very personal opinion that you have on how the Godot API should be like, not a "bug". You could have phrased it "Renaming get_current_animation_position to get_pos" and left away the rant.

Now to the actual rant, Godot's API is always very descriptive. We changed get_pos to get_position in 3.0, and many other such changes as with autocompletion, characters are cheap, and we feel that clearer method names make for self-documenting code.

Regarding this specific method, I don't have a strong opinion. The name has to be different from get_position though, to prevent conflict with 2D and 3D node positions. And AnimationPlayer.get_position() doesn't make much sense, as it's the playback position of the currently playing Animation that you're retrieve (and that's a different object).

I prefer keeping it get_current_animation_position() for these reasons:

• IMO it's not used often enough to justify renaming. Having descriptive method names would be better.
• I know exactly that you're talking about AnimationPlayer despite the suboptimal issue description.
