Sorry for the nonsense.  Would it be easy (or desirable) to make
_that_ one not be read from .gitmodules?

Yes, I agree that such a test would be good (though less important
than a test for the behavior with no configuration set at all, say).
A test to demonstrate that configuration aside from submodule.* is not
read from .gitmodules would also be good imho, but I don't think it's
a blocker for anything. :)
