Personally, I like the idea of only having to type `echo foo | tee -q` instead of `echo foo > /dev/null`, so I think the patch indeed does the right thing in that case.
Perhaps you didn't see it, but why would you want to write tee -q, when 'tq' is shorter? You don't need to change 'tee' and tq is conceptually very simple. I have a feeling 'tq' got ignored because it appeared to be too simple to solve the problem, but it does. Why would you want to add messy code to 'tee'?
