Good point, it is relatively short. It's hard to write a long and 
detailed rationale for a feature as small as a simple shortcut to 
alleviate unnecessarily repeating yourself in your code. That 
said, I will try and expand the rationale section but it might 
not be pretty. I'm a programmer not an author, after all.
