  Good idea.

Comments, anyone?  Would this change break any front-end programs
(mh-e, etc.) that somehow depend on the prompts that install-mh now
prints by default?

  Fascinating. MH-E 5.0.2 ran install-mh for you, but I notice that the
  beta for MH-E 7.0 (mh-e.sourceforge.net) prints a mysterious message
  (Can't find paths). Whoops, I guess that's something we never checked
  while putting out this version.

  In any case, MH-E development is active enough these days that we
  could easily recover from any changes to nmh in this department. Don't
  let us stop you.
