	Isn't there a command presentation type?  Try making the second argument to
	ask be of that type.  Maybe it will work.

    I haven't tried it yet, but that's exactly what I'd try, too.
    Probably you want to make subtypes of command, i.e. askable-command,
    askable-on-unix-host-command, ....

Actually, rather than separate presentation types, just group
related commands in separate command tables and then use a
presentation-type spec like:

'((command :command-table askable-on-unix-host-commands))
