> PhoenixRuntime (the class that is run via the "psql" command) does its own
> custom command-line parameter parsing, which has a number of limitations. One
> of the biggest issues is that it depends on the ordering of named parameters
> vs unnamed (i.e. file parameters), and starts performing actions as part of
> the command-line parameter parsing. This can lead to some files being
> run/imported, and then the tool stopping with an error due to an unexpected
> command-line parameter.
> An additional (but probably less important) issue is that the current
> parameter parsing is difficult to debug and test (there are currently no
> automated tests).
