It looks like "GO UNDERWATER" is supposed to have a custom response, but it doesn't #30

But if I try to "GO UNDERWATER" the game responds with "(What compass direction do you want to go in?)". It's a sensible message, so I don't know if it's a bug, but...

Oh, and I'm not sure why it doesn't work. UNDERWATER is a global object, but it's possible that the WALK action is handled differently than others.
