Hi,

one more thing that may interest end users is that now you can use 

	$ weston --config=my-weston.ini

and the specified config file will be honoured also by all programs
started by weston, e.g. you get the launcher icons in the panel right.
This makes them honour the --no-config option, too.

No more fudging with weston.inis here and there to use your own
temporary setup. :-)


Thanks,
pq
