Add a possibility to execute a command targetting all mobs

I want to target all mobs with a command. I usually use @ e now to target all entities, but when you want a command like /kill @ e, then it will also kill all the items, minecarts, item frames, paintings and other entities. Now in a normal world that wouldn't be much of a problem, but in my decorating world it is. I don't want to walk in on my chest room being unlabeled because of a command that I executed. This is why I think there should be an option to target all mobs with something like @ m (for mobs). With this you can type /kill @ m and it'll kill all mobs instead of all entities.
With this you can of course also add [type=!player] to prevend players to be killed for example, but I just feel like this could be a really good addition to the game

    If you're a Bedrock Edition player (which most of the members on this website seem to be), you can do this already with the family target selector argument. This means you can do this:

    /kill @e[family=!inanimate,type=!player]

    to target all non-player mobs.
