VLC 2.1 opacity control broken in rc/telnet interfaces

The ability to control the opacity of a logo from the telnet/rc interface does not appear to work in 2.1.

The GUI control does work in 2.1 and the telnet/rc interface did work in 2.0.8 (and 2.0.5 and 1.1.11 and ...).
I have been using a Python telnet connection for years to manage this.

Where (in the source) should I be looking for this? Or is this a lua change?

Probably in share/lua/interfaces/

Hmmm. It looks like the entire call_object_command sequence was removed (where the @ commands where recognized) from cli.lua.

Did this logo/marq control logic move elsewhere?

I don't think so...
