Hi Jesse,

In cases like that one, it's best to write a small script
to encapsulate the sequence of commands.

It's pretty hard to justify adding such functionality
when there's a reasonable way to automate it.
However, if you can find a few other people who say
they'd like that functionality and make a good case
for it, I'll reconsider.

Jim
