Exactly. While I do not think qgit uses them, fsck-objects and
init-db also got shorter-and-sweeter synonyms.

Not me personally. The recent shorter-and-sweeter synonyms are
too young to kick out their original names. We probably should
wait for at least 6 months, preferrably longer, after the first
major release that introduced them.

No. But we should certainly draw up deprecation/removal
schedule. It simply could be "never" ;-).
