Summary0009201: Set a cache variable without changing the docstring
DescriptionCurrently you have to change the docstring to set a cache variable:
SET(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Debug CACHE STRING "default to debug" FORCE)

I think it would make sense if docstring was an optional parameter, so you could do this:
SET(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Debug CACHE FORCE)
