That approach doesn't really make a lot of sense if non-fault options aren't
suitable for you.  Once you set the port options, the options screen doesn't
appear anyway(BATCH=no) unless options have changed.  With your usage, a
port with non-standard options could be changed, and your build wouldn't be
what you expect it to be.
