That's definitely simpler, but I think that being able to change the vocab 
loader's notion of current directory would be a good thing for people who use 
the UI or Emacs, since Finder, Explorer, and other launchers tend not to set 
the current directory to anything useful. It would also be useful to be able to 
switch gears to a different project without quitting and restarting Factor. But 
perhaps a nicer interface to add-vocab-root that let you replace a notional 
working root with a new root would be a better design for this. What do you all 
think?
