Everyone seems to handle that case the way you describe. Even Solaris and HP-UX with only one empty file - which makes them inconsistent with/without -m and that's probably grounds for a future direction disallowing the error they give without -m. As to how to group the other problems you raised into one or more new bugs... The file operand of "-" will get fixed as a side effect of the change here. The -p and the -r problem I think should each have their own bug. The others could probably be lumped together in one bug.
