I see a possible problems here. What if I run
a module with 'parm=xxx', removes it, and then want to run it witout xxx?
Will I have to remember that I used 'xxx' last time and use
'parm=no_xxx'? I may even not know that some previous user used the
module with 'parm=xxx'
This could get messy if 'xxx' is a powerful parameter.
