I ran into a use-case just today: I wanted to run one particular
regression test script under CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS, but it needed
stuff created by earlier scripts, and I didn't especially want to
run all of those scripts under CCA. With a way to select a template,
I could've run the earlier scripts in a normal build, renamed the
ending-state regression database to something else, and then installed
a CCA-enabled executable and run a test with just the script of
interest. The way I actually got it done was considerably hackier :-(
