But, but... which configuration is that? The "servers" file, or the
"config" file? Or would that be /path/to/config/directory, with the file
names remaining the same?

Of course, --no-config would work in any case.

The funny thing is, though, that we can't add such an option. We have to
pass the context parameter down the call chain first, and move the
config file reading from the libraries into the client, because the
client is the only bit that sees command-line options. Wheee...
