They're not going to use wx with mercurial--that's already enforced in wx.  So
that means they'll be learning new stuff anyway (hg itself).

What if those long-time wx people typed "hg -h" and, in that output, they saw
a group of commands with a "wx" or "wx_" prefix?  I think they'd know exactly
what they were looking at.

hg wxlist
hg wxnits
hg wxpdiffs
hg wxrtichk

For those who have serious problems with this, a new 'wx' could be:

---cut---
#!/bin/sh
cmd=$1
shift
hg wx$cmd "$@"
---cut---
