If noone objects, I would like to add two new features to add for 8.0.
I have called them -m and -r.

add -r locker

removes locker from your path if it's there.

add -m locker

behaves normally if locker wasn't in your path already. If locker was
anywhere in your path though, it moves it to the end. Similarly,

add -m -f locker

will move locker to the front of your path.

The move functionality has been requested a few times, and I hadn't
done it before because I couldn't think of a reasonable
implementation. I thought of one a couple of days ago.
