Martin, I feel with you, the <command> and <application> tags in the Primer MAY need a little bit added to them, so that users can understand the difference. A few times I have been smacked by the difference in use, ask Ceri about Re: NFS and the part he pointed out where it was not a command ;) Even though this has been pointed out before, its about time SOMEONE fixed it.
