Having said all that, because I like the patch 3/4 so much, here is
another way to fix this, and I think (of course I am biased, but...)
the result is easier to grok.  Not only it makes it clear that the
namespace for the actual command names on the command line and the
namespace for the supported values of the configuration are distinct,
it makes it clear that we do not do anything extra when the user
explicitly tells us which variant to use.

This is designed to be squashed into [4/4] of this latest round (as
opposed to the one in the message I am responding to, which is to be
squashed into the previous round).
