Pedro, changes in this patch [1] are not user visible, because even without this patch nowadays, the (implicitly defined) abbreviated commands still behave correctly. This patch [1] is to prevent these abbreviated commands becoming ambiguous in the future.


Of course, this is a ping to the patch [1].
