Actually, I'd much rather get rid of the prefix-as-modifier
functionality, and have `L' and friends obey the process-prefix
convention.  

Instead, I'd like to get a small (widget-based) window or frame for
setting the default values for `L' and `I'.  I think I did part of
this a long time ago for the menu interface, but it would probably
need a window or frame to work really well.
