I would hope it wouldn't have to come to that. The ability to alter
the date might lead to abuse, but it doesn't seem that there's really
away around the need for tools like this.
Perhaps a --date implementation would create another header for the
actual creation timestamp...something like that.
This still leaves us without a good way of changing my-id for just one
invocation (without any chance of leaving it in a bad state after an
unexpected exit) -- but perhaps the same approach could be applied
there
as well.
It seems to me that all commands allow overriding of the default
archive, having them override the id might make sense as well.
However, you'd need to map the rcs id to a tla id somehow.
