This "free old, then handle tri-state" mirrors the code in the parseopt
callback pretty closely. I wonder if they could share the logic (it is
not many lines, but we would want the logic to stay identical). I
suspect the helper function would end up with more boilerplate than it's
worth, though, trying to handle the unset and default cases.

These tests follow a different style from the "--from" tests later in
the script (and your second patch does follow it, and puts its test
close there). Any reason not to have all of the "from" tests together,
and using the same style?


Overall, the whole thing looks cleanly done, and I don't mind it going
in as-is. These are just two things I noticed while reading it over.
