You may want to be able to do the same from inside a script, so I guess 
we should better have this as an environment variable itself again.

There was a way to have environment variable reads return a value 
directly from code rather than go via environment storage. I guess we 
could expose the flag through that?

Or add an environment variable that we set in set_default_env() and 
ignore that variable on saveenv. I'm not sure I like that option better 
than your current one though.
