Perhaps provide a "doit" method a la `cleanse --prune doit` so a user could 
try
the dispel to see what it'd do before actually doing it (if this wouldn't 
cause
too much of a headache having the code do hypothetical situations).

The defaults menu would be via `sorcery` -> Option?

Perhaps add a flag/option to enable this behaviour and leave plain `dispel
<spell>` as is? e.g. `dispel -r <spell>` for "recursive dispel"?

I really like this idea and look forward to seeing it in devel. :) Thanks for
the work on this Andrew! And for asking what we'd like to see Sorcery do. ;)
