I am planning to re-roll this.
So, I am just confirming whether I understood properly.

 * I will add the tests for check for '-q --no-quiet' instead of just
'--no-quiet' sets to 0 and '-v --no-verbose' sets to 0 in the patch
which improves test coverage which will be before the OPT_COUNTUP()
change.

 * I will then add the test for '--no-quiet' sets to 0 in the separate
patch after OPT_COUNTUP() change.

Is there something else or something different that you are suggesting?
