Except it isn't. If you do that before updating to new nightly.conf,
it'll complain that the URL it sees in the old config isn't available,
and prompts.

If you first do 'dim ub', and then do 'dim ub' again, before changing
the URL, it'll also prompt, but it's unable to override the existing drm
remote.

I think dim should be updated to handle all of this without user
manually doing anything other than answering a yes/no prompt.
