As I said in another message, I have no preference myself over the
name of this variable (or making it a shell function like Duy
mentioned, which incidentally may give us more visual pleasantness
by losing '=').

I'd just be happy as long as the feature becomes available, and I'd
leave the choice of consistent and convenient naming to others who
have stronger opinions ;-)
