However, it would be really nice to have a basic concept of synonyms. For example mysql's cli supports both describe and desc. Building that type of functionality in from the start would hopefully not be too onerous. was (Author: jeromatron): If I had to choose one, it would be nice to be more descriptive (describe versus \d).
