yes, but I'm trying to understand your statement: 'the panel merely 
being a wrapper around the -path flag'

unless I'm not understanding something
making these changes from the panel in Pd these settings are persistent
making them from the command line they are not

libs loaded gets written to the 'default.pdsettings' file
and is easier to make changes there
except PdX doesn't recognize '# comments'

but I found going root and physically moving them back in in nautilus 
was easier

a shell script would only work on a per session basis as well - no?
