A user might not *need* that, provided s?he were knowledgeable wrt replacement commands or wrt Lisp. But a user might *want* that. The question is whether such commands should be added to Emacs, as a convenience. I have no opinion about that. But if they are added then I would prefer that the command names reflect better what the commands do (see my previous comment).
