It would be better if the structure of the option definitions allowed an

Yes, something like that seems doable in future. We would first have to standardize config specifications for those most common flag-like cases.

Of course, in some cases it's advantageous to allow passing much more complex things than just flags, so not all would be covered, but still.

Anyway, I don't feel like poking into this soon myself (not 2015); my ideas on this are pretty vague and I see more pressing matters to solve.
