    Why not @slanted?

Although Werner is of course right that @s is parallel to @b and @r, in
this case I think I agree with Thorsten.  Using up such a short command
name for something so infrequently used seems worse to me than making
the command name "un"parallel.

So, Werner, can you change it to @slanted, please?  A line in the manual
explaining the reasoning would be good.  "This command name is longer
than the other font-change commands because it was invented much later."
Or something like that.

Thanks.
