Yes and no.  Repeating a command again is an easy thing for a user to
do by mistake.

Since the effects may not be visible, person will not necessarily see
what has happened.  This is dangerous.  It should do some sort of
confirmation to protect per from this danger.

How about asking for confirmation the first time a user repeats
the command in this way?
