Thanks for doing all that. I like it. One nit: this says "on a separate device": + --preserve-root[=all] do not remove '/' (default); with 'all', skip\n\ + any command line argument on a separate device\n\ Perhaps it should say something like "on a separate device from its parent" ? Otherwise, one might erroneously interpret "separate" as meaning "different from the device of other command line arguments". I wondered how the code tested for this attribute, and had to read the code to find that it stats both the command-line argument, A, and "A/..", and if they have different device IDs, then A is eligible to be skipped when this new option is in effect.
