Thank you. :) I did a little spelling and grammar cleanup, but I may have
missed/messed up a few things. ;)

What happens if you try to do a persisten_add or config_query on an already
existing variable (such as OPTS)? How can we use config_query (or another
method) to add to OPTS (if OPTS is already considered persistent, can we just
do: OPTS="$OPTS <new options>" and it will be persistent during the cast (and
not saved, otherwise multiple casts would continually add <new options> to the
end ;))?
