I am also making this be 

 +	OPT_CALLBACK_OPTARG(0, "itrace", &itrace_synth_opts, NULL, "opts",

I.e. single letter options should be used for something more
mainstrean/frequently used, and we can also shorten it, so far, to --it:

[acme@ssdandy linux]$ perf script --i
  Error: Ambiguous option: i (could be --input or --itrace)

 usage: perf script [<options>]
    or: perf script [<options>] record <script> [<record-options>] <command>
    or: perf script [<options>] report <script> [script-args]
    or: perf script [<options>] <script> [<record-options>] <command>
    or: perf script [<options>] <top-script> [script-args]

[acme@ssdandy linux]$ perf script --it
