Indeed. just 'publish' sounds a bit funny but why not.

opam doesn't support renaming very well. A workflow to have it done 
transparently to users could be:

- create a new package publish.0.3.1
- create a new empty package opam-publish.0.3.1 that depends on publish.0.3.1
- make publish conflict with earlier opam-publish versions

This way an `opam upgrade` can pick up the name change.

We can also, of course, keep an alias.
