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.
