Typing "enh" selects "enhancement" uniquely
Typing "s w" selects "needs work" uniquely
Typing "s r" selects "needs review" uniquely
Typing "geo" gives you 2 options for "geometry" or "algebraic geometry" to 
select
etc.
So I don't think we need to add three-letter shortcuts, which would come 
with a cost of obscurity
