IMHO we should just implement the \setrandom changes, and not add any of
these options to modify the standard test workload. If someone wants to
run TPC-B workload with gaussian or exponential distribution, they can
implement it as a custom script. The docs include the script for the
standard TPC-B workload; just copy-paster that and modify the \setrandom
lines.
