You could make aliases for each program, but I agree, there should be a way to set it up so they resolve automatically.
You could possibly also make a shell script that does this automatically. I believe most flatpak ids follow a pattern such as com.github.user.package, for github projects for example. So you could loop through all installed flatpaks, extract the name, and then add the alias.
Agreed, but I also feel like such a thing should be included with Flatpak by default instead of leaving it to the users to solve.
