Given your examples, I'd say that it's a feature rather than
a bug :-)
But admittedly, I didn't think about aliases. But there is a way to
get the best of both approaches:
Suppose A is an alias for C.
Now, if A has overriding interactive spec, use that.
Else if C has overriding interactive spec, use that.
Else use original interactive spec for C (if any).
So this would actually work:
