Bash 3 and $HOME abbreviated with a tilde.

Got a bit irritated when updating my Gentoo boxes to use bash 3.00.16, the \W and \w options for the prompt now replaces the home directory name to tilde, I hope I'm not the only one who wants to see the home directory name instead of the tilde.

Wouldn't it be possible to see options \U and \u (just a suggestion) which behaives as \W and \w used to do under 2.05.
