We (the jed maintainer team for Debian) decided to patch site.sl to make
jed works as we want. So you need not to think about this issue anymore.

But we have one big problem: How to add an commandline option without
patching command_line_hook() in site.sl. Is it possible for an user to
add a command line option that is handled by a script in its .jedrc?
