John, I understand your pov, and we actually had a fairly heated debate 
over this issue when Libor brought it up. But I do value convenience 
more than safety here.

Just think of it as if those commands were additional keywords. With the 
exception of the 'list' command (which I now renamed to 'show') those 
commands aren't really what you'd frequently want to use as a function 
or variable name. However, I admit that there should at least be a 
warning if you happen to do that, I'm working on that now.
