That being allowed at all kind of bugs me. I realize this probably isn't a
particularly common problem in practice, but suppose you have:
-o<filename>
-of
And the user uses "-o" with a file named "f":
theapp -of // Do what now?
Or,
-o<filename>
-of<filename>
theapp -ofabc // "-o fabc" or "-of abc"?
The whole possibility kinda makes me nervous.
Short options with parameters don't accept bundling, so the problem
never shows itself.
