"Can use" being the operative term, not "should have to use". I would
not want completion to omit certain commands, based on somebody else's
notion of what is convenient, which in turn forces me to use other means
of figuring out a seldom-used command I may or may not be aware of.
If this means entering three characters instead of two, then three
characters it is. Alternatively, make it a configurable option, with
"convenient=false" being the default. I vote against the change.
First world problems... ;-)
