This is certainly possible, but all that is going to happen is that
weston-launch will have to pass the switch. And then we will have to
tell people they must provide the switch to weston-launch.
I think changing the name at the lowest level as I did it is the correct
solution. I see no way anybody can use this unless they can tell the x
server to ignore any existing xorg.conf file. Changing it at the final
program seems much cleaner than requiring every wrapping program to pass
a --config switch.
