Hey Francis. What do you think of this approach to addressing your concerns?

Essentially, you only have to use --accept-early-release when calling the bootstrap. This flag is remembered thanks to code scribbled in the buildout script. When you rerun bootstrap without that argument it goes back to the usual behavior.

This is much nicer usability, at the expense of a somewhat odd pattern; however, I think it is defensible since what we are trying to control extends from bootstrapping through normal use.

If you think this is reasonable, I'll need to update CHANGES and make sure the rest of the tests still pass.
