I don't think there is anything precluding the packager from setting up the availability of a "turnkey" multi-target toolchain (with fat binaries if necessary) that would still make sense to pass `--target` to. > One way to deal with all those options in a consistent manner is hook into > the logic for determining the current target, if none is explicitly specified > on the command line or implicit from the executable name, then prepend some > additional flags on the command line based on some cmake variable or so.

This might make sense if we believe that the ability to add arbitrary "implied default target options" is not harmful. I am not certain people would agree on that point. The solutions do have overlap in terms of the problems they could be applied to, but I think each of them address some use cases that the other does not.
