I think that's somewhat confusing.  As Barbie famously didn't say, user
interface work is hard.

(If you don't pay attention to user-interface issues, you end up with Xkb.
Or Git.  If you do pay attention, you end up with xkeycaps.  Or Darcs.  I'd
much rather Babel were in the latter camp.)

I'm not quite decided yet (I need to sleep over it), but right now I'm
tempted to take the union of the interfaces listed on the command line with
those listed in the config file.
