Are we currently solving a real problem here?  Nobody's come up and said "I 
want two different variants of the busybox "sort" command, but each one has 
to be called "sort", and right now there's no easy way to do that...

Can we hold off on putting in infrastructure to make this configurable until 
somebody actually encounters a _need_ for it to be configurable?  Wait for 
the first use case so we're implementing something that someone, somewhere, 
can actually test rather than just speculate about?
