I vaguely recall Bart asking #pkg5 what --be-name should do if a BE
isn't going to be created, I'd thought the answer he got was "nothing,
duh", rather than "fail".  Is that not the case?

Assuming it is the case, just pass --be-name in any situation you'd care
about the name of any BE resultant BE (and his new option I forget the
name of, if you're adamant that you want a BE regardless of whether pkg
thinks you do.)

I agree it should probably ignore it, which is one of the options I noted in bug 17045.

I was primarily referring to the comments about whether or not we need a new BE and how a user would know if specifying the option would change the result of the operation.
