Makes sense.

I think I'd probably have a --mode js option,
but that's because I've been thinking it'd also be nice to have a few other
options like --config <config_file> to override the default .ebrc.
Tbh though, --runjs, --runcurl etc don't bother me that much.
It certainly beats the multiple copies of the same binary option.
