Aha. I see; those were examples that hadn’t come up before. So
ordering is useful to avoid an explosion of options. At the same
time, there is a bunch of aspects where order sensitivity clearly
does not make sense: does save,todo,failed do something useful?
Or todo,save,failed? Or all,failed,todo or all,todo,failed?
save isn't positional - it's just a switch.
all selects everything - so if it appears before other options they
will have no effect.
There is also Eric’s inquiry about how composed commands line,
eg. from aliases, would be handled.
Fixed - although I have test failures on our smoke boxes at the moment.
