Hmm. This uncovers our clunky SET syntax. imho this should be a clean
and natural option, not something with a bunch of underscores in the
keyword and a quoted string for the option.

But this is awfully close to beta to be even considering making this
change in default behavior and syntax for 7.0. We've got a lot of
other features to babysit through beta, and this one wasn't even on
the radar until a few days ago...
