That the problem you point out already exists, emacs being the most
notable (but not the only) example. Until it's solved in the already
existing instances, it's pointless and wrong to prevent others from doing
the same thing that they see in dselect daily.

When it happens, THEN prevent new instances. Until then it's not wrong
because there are already packages that do this.
