If cmake is used directly from the command line, it's possible to pass a bunch of options (http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v2.8.12/cmake.html#section_Options). This is nice because with this it's possible to use default settings - even if the cache get deleted. I'm actually really interested in this because it would be possible to set the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH variable via batch file - which is neat for custom find modules in custom locations.
Branching the topic a bit.
cmake-gui should most likely be updated to take the same arguments that ccmake and cmake take.
However, if you are setting CMAKE_MODULE_PATH, the best place to do it is in the CMake code of your project. That way your project will stand on its own and not require special command line options to build (which is bad IMO).
