I agree with you both on that point, and in hindsight, I should have
made the name more coherent. I propose we decide now on a standard
negation. I suggest --no-foo (even when foo is a verb). In a very
short-term followup patch, I rename all the new flags from that bundle
to --no-whatever, and add --no-whatever aliases to all the other
negative flags. Then we can start thinking about doing something
smarter, which should come with a better abstaction for flags, and so
probably after 2.4. I'd still like to see that bundle applied soon,
because it's a dependency for more useful stuff like --reverse.

OK. I'm happy to apply the bundle as soon as the followup is ready - I'd rather not leave things in a inbetween state. I think --reverse needs some discussion before we can accept it anyway (I like it, but it's a new feature we should be careful about) so I don't think this'll hold that up.
