Ok, you have convinced me that this needs more thought.  I'll probably
revert my second star-merge hack for now.

There's just a difference between saying, "here, run this command to do
FOO", and "here, download this script, put it somewhere, make sure it's
executable, and then run it whenever you want to do FOO".  It's not a
huge difference, but I think that whenever you find scripts like that
are necessary, it's a bug.
