Hi,

This is more convenient than adding a save_env command to every entry.
Users can just set savedefault=1 and all items are saved by default,
remove it and it's not saved anymore. They can also config each item
individually with --save and --nosave option, which is similar to
adding a save_env command at the beginning, but easier to edit.
