From what I can tell, there's no change in the behaviour. All paths
would eventually go through HandleSlashCmds's cleaning logic. This is
also mentioned in ignore_slash_options's comment.
* Read and discard "normal" slash command options.
*
* This should be used for inactive-branch processing of any slash command
* that eats one or more OT_NORMAL, OT_SQLID, or OT_SQLIDHACK parameters.
* We don't need to worry about exactly how many it would eat, since the
* cleanup logic in HandleSlashCmds would silently discard any extras anyway.

Done. patch 1 adds ignore_slash_options to bind. patch 2 adds the new
\bindx, \close and \parse commands.
