In general I would push to keep the flags consistent across client/server
and standalone mode. On the other hand, I am hesitant to change a flag that
already exists in the wild (although, it was just committed to master; it's not
in a release yet).
I guess talking through that to myself, I would vote for "change the
client/server flag to be consistent with standalone" but I would also welcome
input from @brosander and @joewitt .
