  Well, the idea is that the different document hierarchy entities involved
should be able to program whatever they want, plus being able to handshake
the information they need to exchange. (I just did not go into the details.)

  So sure, a journal option should be able to tell if it is supposed to
override the corresponding article option, or if it is supposed take effect
only if the article does not override it.
