FWIW Walter has said that if alias this had been proposed today 
that it would be rejected because it has too many nasty corner 
cases. I happen to believe alias this is awesome but I do see 
where he's coming from and I've been reviewing a lot of Razvan's 
PRs fixing those corner cases so I know they do exist. One of the 
points on the agenda for the DLF meeting at dconf is a review of 
the state of alias this.
