In general we want to minimise the number of people who need to tweak configuration parameters. I have nothing against a module parameter that selected a specific fallback. However, if a large proportion of people end up having to set the parameter once we get an assembly SHA implementation (to either select it or deselect it) then we're doing it wrong.
