Both because I think it might make it clearer that it's the common prefix of "foo/bar" and "food" is not "foo" and because, as I said, we might want such a function later and it would be unfortunate if the name was taken. Btw, I just checked and we already have `dirname()` and `stripdir()` functions that would match `commondir()`.
+1 for `commondir()`. It matches the actual behavior, which is the last filename
part is always stripped.
