Calling $ box add '{:branch "master" :proj foo/bar}' baz/bar will install baz/bar. If bar is underspecified positionally (e.g. box add '{:branch "master" :proj baz/bar}' bar) the specified :proj is overridden and the caller will still see resolution conflicts.
I seems that the CLI should be explicit about overriding. I'm also inclined to think that the positional command should be subservient to the metadata.
