The bare minimum we need is a way to set the enabled/disabled-at-next-

I don't agree -- we already have the -t option.  Providing an alias with
an evocative name should not be a problem, but if there are
disagreements about what start/stop would mean to someone who's not read
the manpage, then we can forget that.
