I have looked at writing this command line switch and even though there was
a "mode = USL;" line it was not possible to change this to "mode = SGSL;"
without major code changes. I tried it anyway, but once I thought I had
finished and loaded up the editor, there were at least 3 segfaults that
immediately popped up. At that point I just gave up, because who knows how
many segfaults there would still come or - even worse - not be discovered
before we release.

I hope Martin knows a quick way to implement this command-line switch.
