Well, discuss away... but I'm not going to put my foot in that one. Wide sweeping philosophy discussions aren't really much fun, especially when we're all just hand-waving anyway. Let me suggestion something different: 1. Propose a new shortcut function. Bonus points for a patch. 2. If it's full of win, it'll go in. 3. Rinse and repeat. I don't think anybody's opposed to the idea of "helpers" or "shortcuts," so just start making some suggestions. Either they'll turn out to be a good idea, or they won't. We don't need any larger framing device than that.
