Right.

Yes and no. It depends on how you define "prefix arg command".

I think so, yes. Or rather I think I know that we want to get rid of
the special casing of prefix commands.

There's C-x 4 and C-x 5 (or is C-x 8 and C-x 9) in GNU ELPA's
other-frame-window.
PCL-CVS had some other prefix commands, tho they weren't recognizable by
Emacs as such. I think Gnus's M-& is another example.
