I would like there to be an adverbial version of "cd", which takes a
path followed by a command and optional arguments and executes the
command with its working directory set to the given path.  Its
invocation would be similar to chroot(8), that is:

  chdir [OPTION] NEWDIR [COMMAND [ARG]...]

Could be an option in "env".

  env -C /path/to/dir VAR=value ... command arg

(-C follows "tar -C' and "make -C").
