If I understand you correctly, you are going to make it so that there is no such thing as an alias, not only in the UI, but in the code. This would be a good thing, I think. We currently use only forwards because there are some instances where alias won't work (eg. an alias points to an address that is forwarded). We have some users that get confused with this, and removing the alias would help a lot.
You understand correctly :)
