I've spent a couple hours beating my head against this, and I can't figure
out why this would need to be done. The codepaths seem to work as I expect
them to, with it preserving the selections you choose. The only thing that
I'm not certain that I want to keep is that when you choose to autodetect,
it'll preserve the previous answer regardless of what's autodetected. I'm
planning to change this behavior, but is there anything I'm missing?
