I like the idea, but I find the initfile processing a little
counterintuitive. Shell scripts, for example, don't load init files
unless run "interactively".

I'd expect the --script option to suppress init file processing as
well. If you want to debug a script, you can run it with sbcl --load
script.lisp instead.
