2. It may be useful to have some high-level parameters to specify a
specific run-time environment, since ORTE has multiple, related
frameworks (e.g., RAS and PLS).  E.g., "orte_base_launcher=tm", or
somesuch.

I was just writing this up in an enhancement ticket when the though hit me: isn't this aggregate MCA parameters? I.e.:

        mpirun --am tm ...

Specifically, we'll need to make a "tm" AMCA file (and whatever other ones we want), but my point is: does AMCA already give us what we want?
The above sounds like a possible solution as long as we are going to deliver a set of such files and not require each site to create their own. Also, can one pull in multiple AMCA files for one run thus you can specify a tm AMCA and possibly some other AMCA file that the user may want?
