I finally followed the GTP (draft) standard and used a prefix separated by a 
hyphen for non-standard extension commands, so "play_sequence" 
became "gogui-play_sequence".

"setup_sequence" wouldn't be a good name, because the setup stones are not a 
sequence, you can specify them in any order.

There will also be a second command "gogui-setup_player" for setting the color 
to play, but support for that is optional, since it is not strictly necessary 
that the engine is informed about the color to play. The genmove and play 
commands are sent with a color argument anyway.
If an engine does not support gogui-setup, setup stones will be sent as moves 
as previously.
