 we can manage to type raster3d because 3D rasters are generally not used
 as often as rasters.

 treat numbers just like the underscore so that we can shorten raster3d as
 r3.

 Having the parser treat numbers as separate words shouldn't be a problem.

 OTOH, while I can understand why people might not want to use e.g.
 "back_ground" (to allow abbreviation as "bg"), I really don't see the
 problem with "raster_3d". To me, "raster" and "3d" are entirely separate
 words.
