BTW, just to close the loop on this one after the discussion... Gary would like to go ahead with the work as it was initially specified, and there seems to be general support for that from a number of folks including at least one voting ARC member. (There will be clarifications to the manpage, as requested, and that will be worked as part of the manpage bug. It doesn't change the substance of this case.) It's a straightforward feature, and the work could obviously be extended in the future (with a new case) to other options if desired/justified. But without the real customer requests to justify the additions, Gary would like to proceed with the explicit option he understands the use case for. I agree, and think we should leave this case closed as initially specified. If there are specific objections, please raise them ASAP, otherwise Gary will move to integrating his changes after a day or two. liane
