Using the "whole" command name would make them predictable.

I'm thinking about VIM: it also uses autocompletion of commands, when
there is no ambiguous command (say, :m could be :move, :mark, :make,
but :ln can be only expanded to :lnoremap, so it will use that).
People that write plugins for VIM usually use the whole command, to
avoid that. Also, VIM forces plugins to register commands with the
first letter as uppercase, to avoid colisions with internal commands.
Maybe some thing like that, some prefix on plugins commands?
