I've read the patches and I think I can agree with all the changes
proposed.  We might eventually flip the default, but we do not truly
know until we unleash the version with choices to end users.

I agree with Phillip's comment on minimum tests to ensure that the
interaction between configuration variables and the command option
is sane.

Thanks.
