The whole environment thing is really messy at the moment and this is going
to make it worst. Though I think it's more important to avoid forking too
much then to find a clean way to do it right now.

The only aspect I'm worried about is if we can always provide a sync
implementation of isStandalone/getMode()... changing from sync to async
later would be messy. Though a sync implementation is possible in all the
cases I can think about and it should simplify things a lot compared to
async.
