True enough

- or simply have a console window come up & execute "mprime -d" when you start X?

I've no objection to anyone writing a fancy front-end for mprime, but I hope the 
existing "minimalist" version will be retained ... if only because the great 
beauties of linux are its incredible stability and the minimal configuration needed 
to run it, the first is reduced and the second vanishes as soon as you need to run 
X.
