Sorry to resurrect a dead thread, but I am a first-time (first-day!) ledger user. Color me impressed thus far, but there have been some snags that probably could have been avoided with clearer documentation and/or different defaults.
I was frustrated that neither --explicit nor --pedantic seemed to work until I found this thread through google. In retrospect, it is in the documentation, but late, in section 8.3.2. TBH, most people will want to have dived in by section 4 or 5. So, put me down as +1 for making explicit the default and offering "relaxed" as an option.
