Problem: I need all of the runtime flavors (arch and runtime combos), and I find myself always doing this dumb dance to install the one I want to use last, because dnvm install doesn't honor the currently active (or default) arch and runtime ...
... so I'm wondering ... is that the best logic/feature here?
For those of us putting other runtimes on the system (other than the one we normally use) to play with arch+runtimes from projects we've downloaded (and because VS wants the x86 clr one), I wonder if it wouldn't be better to leave the active (or default ... whichever make more sense) arch+runtime set to whatever the dev has already set (or offer a switch to skip the dnvm use in a dnvm install)?
... I also wonder ... for those of us doing all of our dev on one runtime (for me, it's x64 coreclr), would it be valuable to have an "Dear Santa :santa:, I want 'um ALL runtimes!"-type of dnvm install flavor switch or command that would give us all four combos of runtimes and leave our currently active runtime as the active runtime? That would be very, very easy for me to maintain.
