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.
