  * Test and training tasks:
   * Extend `--exec` functionality:
-   * Add `--tmp-mapset` which runs `--exec` in a database/location/mapset which is created at the beginning and deleted at the end (database/location exists before and after). (See also `--tmp-location`, #3537, #3585, and r72790.)
    * Add `--clean` (current default) and `--no-clean` which say if `--exec` should clean the `.tmp` directory in the Mapset (for parallel execution). (See also #3537.)
    * Add `--lock` (current default) and `--no-lock` which say if `--exec` should lock the Mapset (for parallel execution). See also #2685 and the `-f` flag.

    * Make it possible to associate `*.gxw` files with `grass` executable (#1204) or at least add `--gui-workspace` or preferably just recognize it in the command line (distinguish it from database/location/mapset).
