Yes, but in turn I was worried about CSS name(space) pollution.

I had it as just "foo" first, but was worried that if one does that (and
"imposes" it on a stable release) then suddenly people might having parts of
their existing pages tagged with CSS classes that they were using somewhere
else. Plus it then means that you can't create a new custom field without
wondering whether you've got some CSS with the same name.

So in some ways, the more verbose

  customfield edit CF-foo

might be a compromise, as it means that creating the custom field named "foo"
doesn't mess with any existing "foo" class.
