In theory. That's kind of what the use of Default implies - don't add
them if they're not asked for, no?

In practice there are some issues for this setup - e.g. the helpful
dividing up of each area into multiple areas (src, test, sample), each
with its own sconscript, makes that harder, since apparently a
sconscript with no targets at all isn't benign. Also that there are so
many examples to be excluded-but-not-removed that describing what to
include/exclude would bloat something - command-line options, internal
flags, etc. Could turn off lots easily, then how to turn one back on?
That stuff is our problem, of course.
