Description

Both jj abandon and jj bookmark forget are "get rid of this entity" commands. It would be nice if they used the same verb.

Would you say there is any chance of miscontruing what the command does if they use the same verb?
Which one would work better?
Isn't "get rid of this entity" usually called "delete"?
