I'd be a bit leery of using the letter 'I' as a prefix for anything. It's awfully short, and hard to distinguish from '1' or 'l'. Recommend WONTFIX.

The I: alias has been used for a long time and people are used to it.

Lot of them were created already in August 2006 - so they're there from almost very beginning of the Incubator.
