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.
