Because the less random noise in user-visible (or programmer-visible,
for that matter) command names, the better.  If rectangle mode is
separated from CUA mode, then the `cua-' prefix becomes random noise.
`Historical interest' is not sufficient reason to retain it; that sort
of thing is better served by comments in the source file.

Anyway, if you don't think it's important, you don't mind if it's
changed, right?
