If we decide to go with yes/no, an option like:
--yes-means=<it behaves like this>
seems to me easier to understand. Though I recognize that it doesn't tell that
the behavior changed.
And before responding to this thread I wanted to have another look at the
unfinished patch that Dscho sent a few years ago, but I did not have much time
these past few days, and I could not find it anymore.
Thanks,
Christian.
