I need this in order to allow aliases of the same form as "ls-tree", 
"rev-parse" etc, so that I can use

	[alias]
		my-cat=--paginate cat-file -p

to add a "git my-cat" command.
Seconds?
I personally dislike any name with "_" or "-" in it, since I am stuck with 
different keyboard layouts and keep mistyping them. I even often find 
myself hitting <TAB> just to complete a _single_ "-", since the position 
of the <TAB> key is not wildly jumping around between different keyboard 
layouts.

So I can live without it.

Ciao,
Dscho
