Ha, I thought that nobody would notice. ;-)

I actually thought about that, too. But then I remembered that I might 
want a 'show' function for some H(ask)ellish purpose.

Yeah, we discussed that idea when Pure was just born (I think Libor 
originally brought that up), but I very strongly prefer unstropped 
commands (at least as much as others hate them ;-). Anyway, it's really 
only an issue with that one command, and that can be resolved by picking 
something that's less generic than 'list'.
