As the commit msg describes, the subcommands I understand should have clear
responsibilities as possible (documentaion may have some effect in my mind). So,
the removal opertion under "append subcommand" here is little wired to me, but
your suggestion makes sense, this may have compatibility issues. Although I
think it's weird that someone would use this in the presence of the remove
subcommand, and my feeling is that this code is actually copied from the add
method (introduced by 52694cdabbf68f19c8289416e7bb3bbef41d8d27), but I'm not
sure.

So, it's ok for me to drop this one.

Thanks.
