 Replying to [comment:84 wenzeslaus]:

 > As I said before, short options are mostly advantageous for unix-like
 command lines, so let's use what it used there, the Tab key auto-complete.

 We shouldn't rely upon this feature being available. And even when it is,
 it's not automatically better than abbreviation (e.g. completion is
 affected by latency, abbreviation isn't).
