Regarding comment 2418: As comment #2419 noted, the sequence "[[" is
already reserved. In addition, support for "[[" is widespread. The goal is
to standardize widely-used practice. The [[...]] form adds important
functionality and reduces the risks of certain kinds of errors.

Ah, right, I forgot that [[ was already reserved.

Additional questions:
<ul><li>Would it be appropriate to add '[[ -o <name> ]]' to this proposal?
(This would be used to test if a shell option is enabled.)</li><li>Do
existing implementations always expand all WORDs, including those that have
been short-circuited via '||' or '&&'? (Some expansions have side
effects.)</li></ul>
