You may be working on different projects whose recursive dependencies
includes two different versions of a library or you are a library
author working on an incompatible release of a library. Both already
happened to me and it's painful. Using a switch just for that as it
was once suggested to me is painful and error prone, one time out of
two you end up starting your build in the wrong switch.
How about having your shell change the switch based on e.g.
`.opamswitch`
file in the project root? I actually want this supported regardless, it
would be very convenient.
