How about -n (do all the validation you're going to do anyway, but skip
actually doing anything, a la make)? Offhand, dunno whether -n is
already taken for something else, though.

Certainly for new deployments, anyway.

I'm mostly concerned with the problem of assessing something that may
already be in place where something "weird" has been done that didn't
make it into zipl.conf for some reason. Sounds like there's no nice way
to do that. Would it make sense to "force" updates into zipl.conf and
gradually remove the cmdline arguments?
