Lars?

I'm okay with renaming it, but if we do so, we should also patch NEWS,
which announces this command.  Also, should we have an alias for
timer-list?  Although this command was never released yet, it was
introduced 1.5 years ago, so perhaps it is already used in external
packages, and maybe users are already familiar with it.

Let's wait for a few days in case someone objects, before committing.

Thanks.
