That is saying a very different thing.  master@{4.days} is not short
for masterHEAD{4.days}.

I dunno.  

As design and semantics look still fuzzy (the primary one I am not
sure about is if @ is a ref or just a revision), even though the
desire to have _something_ seem to be popular, I am not particulary
interested in looking at an alternative patch. I want to see the
right semantics first.
