There is also 0: just error and make the caller decide what they want
to have happen.  This is kind of what we have now, though not really

Perhaps we should actually not have one called 'silent' but rather
just a non-interactive text ui factory.

Right, and he's asking for it to default to text.  I'll have a look at it.
