This is very exciting, but given the dangerous nature of the command,
I think it might be a good idea to add a layer of protection around it
to keep the newbies safe.  Perhaps require something to be manually
added to the config file in order to enable the command, or pop up a
warning the first time it's used to ask for confirmation -- something
like that.  Not everybody will have read the mailing list discussions
carefully enough to realize how dangerous it is.
