Strike the complexity. Use of a prefix arg to make it possible to
post-edit the command is, IMO, a good idea. Quite often one wants to
start a command that is almost, but not quite, like the default
recipe. Kim's suggestion to use an alias for configuration between
two separate commands is not customize-friendly. And it offers no
reasonable way to actually get both: prompting for the parts, and a
final opportunity for editing the resulting command before sending it
off.
I think the latter is important enough to offer this with a prefix
argument, and this can't be easily accomplished if there is no unified
command that can actually prompt for the parts as well as the finished
command.
