Are you suggesting that the alternatives system, in association with
shell PATH variables isn't adequate enough for a user who knows enough
about things such as sendmail alternatives to reconfigure to their
hearts content? I'm pretty sure alternatives allows for per-user
configurations, into per-user defined paths for executables and
manpages and what not.
