Pushed. I tweaked your list to the extent of adding back "\ir",
because since it's two letters not one, the argument that it's
entirely useless for tab completion doesn't quite apply. But
if we wanted to make a hard-and-fast policy of offering only
the long form when there are two forms, maybe we should remove
that one too.
