Drush command line option for download Drupal to current folder

[MurzNN]

Very often we need to download Drupal core via Drush directly to current folder via CLI, without Drupal-X.Y or any other subfolder.

At now there are exists only some ugly Bash command line hacks from here like:
drush dl -v -d --destination=".." --drupal-project-rename="$(basename pwd)"
drush dl drupal --drupal-project-rename="../${PWD##*/}" -y
but this is too hard way for newbies, and will work only on Linux.

Please provide standard Drush way for download Drupal directly to current folder!

Best will be having separate Drush command line argument like:
drush dl drupal --to-current-folder

Also will be good to extend arguments --destination=<path> and --drupal-project-rename for support current folder, marked as . (one dot).

For new projects, the expectation is that you are using Composer to download Drupal and any modules you need. Drush9 doesn't even have a dl command.

Drush8 does download to the current folder by default. Also, we are no longer taking feature requests for Drush8
