Why not have the user write a custom entry then? I think it clutters the

to
be easily extensible.
Even with the new configuration parameter, user can still decide to
leave the parameter unset and write a custom entry.
My concern is not with presenting too many options to the user, but with having
to support them. In general, if a use case can be supported without adding a
new user option, I think it's much better not to add it.
OK. I committed the simplified version (no configuration parameter).
