I for one would rather it didn't do that.  I already set my postmaster
command lines the way I want 'em, and I don't want the code overriding
that.  (I prefer to use explicit -p arguments to distinguish the various
postmasters I have running --- shorter and easier to read than explicit
-D would be.  At least for me.)
