ok this broke Carton's layover update and multiple mirror support. Should put back in the old (or new) behavior with options. |

I'm using cpanm with Pinto to install packages from a local repository. The repository can have multiple indexes, so the mirror-index option is a perfect fit. However, when I specify an explicit mirror-index, I do not want it to fall back to the repository's default index. I would argue that this should be the behavior whenever mirror-index is specified.
But I can imagine that some folks might argue the other way. So perhaps the fall back behavior could be disabled with a separate switch (it looks like --mirror-index already implies --mirror-only). Let me know if you would prefer that.
