 I agree with the general analysis that it risks to open a can of worms
 but that we can support a "no games" exception as it is particularly
 wanted and understandable in, say, office constraints.

 I have a problem with introducing a "| no-games" dep though, I could
 see no other example of this in main, and I'm not sure it's an
 acceptable thing to do.

 I would prefer another technical solution, but I agree with supporting
 this.
