Description

Would it make sense to have a --rebuild argument to `stack exec` that would act as if I had passed the appropriate `--package` argument that defines the name of the executable I'm trying to call?

Basically, this argument would look at the name of the executable, and assuming it's just a bare executable name (no path/segments) and matches an "Executable" in one of the cabal packages in my stack project, it would ensure that package is up-to-date.
