Thanks; this is cool, although it breaks the usual
"no-argument-means-1" assumption with cooked numerical prefixes.

However, it only partially fixes my problem, because I would like `1
b' (or just b) to work on the first button I see, `2 b' on the second,
etc.

Maybe numbering invisible parts should be an option?  I never want to
number invisible parts, while Kai always wants to number them.  Sounds
like we need an option to settle our differences.  :-)
