Bug Description

Let's assume the following:
    !nonexisting is "<deleted><reply> Blahblah"
    !aliasfactoid is "<alias> nonexisting"
    !anotherfactoid is "<reply> Other blah"

Telling ubottu
    !no, aliasfactoid is <alias> anotherfactoid
asks to repeating the command, since one is editing an alias. However, repeating the command does nothing; !aliasfactoid is still "<alias> nonexisting"

Workaround:
    !unforget nonexisting
    !no, aliasfactoid is <alias> anotherfactoid
    !forget nonexisting
