Ah, no, I wasn't saying "the single command has to be called 'gc'".
I do not care too much about the name, as it will be hidden scripted

I was responding to Josh's "We want a single point of entry for all
the housekeeping tasks" with "yes---it is not any controversial new
idea---we have had such a single entry point for housekeeping tasks
in 'gc' for a long time and we are receptive of having such a single
command".
