FWIW, introducing bunch of permanent aliases might not be as simple as it sounds. It will basically add another axis to the current config layer, [global, user, repo] * [oldname, new-name]. Should user's "ui.tweakdefaults" precede global "ui.tweak-defaults" for example? Probably it should. Should they both be listed in "hg config"? Maybe, but how can we know which is in effect?
