hm, i frequently rely on tacking-on options after the fact, especially
the -- ones.
Just like the best workflow is append-mostly, command parameters are
often added append-only as well, without jumping back and forth in the
command line to edit the command.
Path or brach names starting with '--' are weird anyway, so isnt this
a reasonable expectation? I hope i'm not misunderstanding something
here.
