There's no hurry for the decision about the name, but the current
transitional state makes it difficult for users to customize this feature:
the command is know primarily under the name "occur", but user options
have a different prefix. After my patch installed, users will be able to
find these options under both names. And the decision about obsoleting
one of them could be postponed.
That would be moving in the opposite direction to that which
I decided on years ago. I don't want to do that unless
I make a decision to abandon the ultimate goal of that change.
Perhaps that would be a good idea, but I don't want to think
about it now.
