This is just an idea I had. I could make a command that changes how future commands search for protocols. For example, imagine a protocol that's built from a lot of little pieces. This feature would let me put all those pieces in a directory, give them really short names, put those names at the front of the search path, and use them for the rest of the pipeline. I think this would make commands more clear and easier to type. Plus it's a nice application of the pickling feature I added.

For the moment, I don't think this will really add much value. Maybe I'll come back to it later.
