Let the bikeshedding begin!

1) Should we deprecate -realtime?

2) Maybe -hostresource?

What further things might we add in the future?

-dedicated sounds wrong (it is an adjective, while most of our options are nouns - thing -machine, -drive, -object, ...)

-hostresource at least sounds like a noun, but is long to type. But at least '-hostresource cpu-pm=on' reads reasonably well.

About the only other noun I could think of would be '-feature cpu-pm=on'.
