Subject: status command confusingly named

I find the command "; s" (select status) confusingly named.

The command allows you select messages based on the status of their flags:
important, new, deleted, answered (or not flagged thusly).

Every other command that referes to flags calls it "*"! Two different names
isn't intuitive.

Is there a historical reason for this? Or, were there simply two different
programmers handling these aspects?
