The shorthands feature is already installed, but it doesn't change the
sematics of symbols. It is just an aliasing feature.
The new feature of loading a file with added shorthands
is just a variation on this aliasing feature. It will not
change the sematics of symbols.

That's a good idea. Can someone tell me how to do this? My knowledge
of git is just barely enough to install changes in master.
