Seeing this makes me really wish we could eventually get a fully modernized command system (like Brigadier, or something similar) in 1.12.2. Writing command parsers for the vanilla 1.12.2 system is quite painful, and the tab-completion API is inherently restricted (e.g., no syntax hinting like <target>, and lack of deep completion inside brackets like NBT tags). I really hope we can introduce a universal and powerful API in the future.

Btw can we supplement some syntactic sugar from meme versions, like /time set midnight? They are not difficult to impl but it seems nobody has done works on this.

This will come after this UI+UX refresh, commands need to be rewritten to a Brigadier (or Brigadier-esque) system. Currently, it is non-trivial to figure out what part of a command is the argument and what type an argument it is. A new and well-defined command system will definitely come.

Can come in a different PR, some commands need rewriting for sure.
