Do you mean that you want me to generate .config-is-not?

I could do that easily enough in configtrans.py.  But I don't see any
evidence that anyone has ever actually used .config-is-not for anything.
If there had been demand for it, the feature would have been ported to
the menuconfig and xconfig scripts long ago.

Don't ever think you know what's right for the other person.
He might start thinking he knows what's right for you.
