I've tried to implement it in the same way as CCMake seem to do it.<br>
Because I can't compare it =><br>
Could somone with access to ccmake test this:<br>
- Start CCMake with -D foo=123<br>
- Configure<br>
- Question: Is foo displayed in the variable list?<br>

<br>
Yes.<br>

- Add/Edit foo to some other value<br>
- Configure<br>
- Question: Was foo overwritten with "123"?<br>

<br>
Yes. Repeatedly (i.e. if I configure, then change it, it still gets<br>
overwritten). And I'm going to have to call that a bug; it's hard to<br>
imagine how it is desired behavior.<br>
