Thanks for the upgrade!
Mind adding example usage to the Readme.md file, then I'll publish it?
Also, if you're feeling ambitious, test coverage would help me make sure we don't accidentally break this with future changes:

I usually leave version bumps out of PRs so the package maintainer can use npm version at release time</minor nitpick>

I couldn't find great info in the Atom docs about the queuing behavior of commands. For example if I orig: dispatch('core:save') then dispatch('core:close'), does Atom guarantee that save will complete before we close the file? Perhaps the two commands can be executed in any order.
We don't need to answer this now if it's working for you. Just something to keep in mind if you notice any flakiness saving.

Sounds like Atom core's stance is that composing commands at the dispatch level is ambiguous (series or parallel? what if one fails?), and that the ambiguity should be resolved by defining a new command that does the desired composition at the JS API level.
Seems to me like a reasonable stance to support with this plugin. Principled objection?
