Well, I'm afraid this is the wrong solution. We do not want to add
global options that change how functions work. In your specific example
it may fix a problem, but in general it causes problems. That's because
script writers most likely will not handle the option being not at the
default value.
So, you indeed need to tell script writers to fix their script.
I know that's a pain, but it's the right solution.
