There is no or little logic in command line option naming.
It would be much better to use one-char options for the options that should not be used in config files, than just telling users not to do it in the man pages.
Better to be quite by default and verbose on demand, with abiity to silence verbosity set in config.
Options for analytical tools (see ticket #12 ) are not thought out yet, time comes to be ready with this.
