I am not quite sure about adding new set of commands for that. Can we use
--reverse option, thereby not introducing new commands?


Adding a reverse option to the existing commands is possible. But I do
not think it is a good idea. It is not always obvious what should
happen when running a standard command in reverse. I consider the
reverse commands as a new set commands and not a variant of the old.
