But in this particular case, you cannot really hack it with two options
that appear independent on surface but in reality are not. Logically, it
is an enum <everything, non-merges, merges-only> and you can choose only
one of them, and it is even worse from the UI perspective to use
combination of two not-quite-independent options.

Also I have a hidden agenda to add "because we could" --show=octopus to
the enum later perhaps only to my private edition ;-)
