I don't think a configurable behavior is needed here. It is my opinion that
there is no need for freedom for these things. It is more important to

I agree. There's like, 5 hardwired commands that ./configure users see
all the time, that we could have CMake understand. That is easy.
Forget about user-specified command line options, for now. Having the
command line interface be more reminiscent of ./configure is the "low
hanging fruit" from a marketing standpoint.<br>
