Possibly, but it's questionable.  At least, it would mean changing the
way aliases handle help; right now, aliases bring up the main command
help.  If aliases had different default behavior, their help would need
to be different from the main command.  Possibly their own full help,
possibly just a pointer like "bzr create-tree is an alias for bzr
reconfigure --tree"
