It would be neat if you could say

login: me@machine.somewhere

where getty would exec rlogin.  It would be neater yet if rlogin
could set variables the same way as on login, explicitly or
implicitly as $L0, $L1 ...  Then we could even say

login: me@machine.somewhere value0 value1 VAR=value

I miss the same possibility for xdm where I would extremely
welcome it.
