Is there some hierarchy of what these options are and how they fit
together?  i.e. small & news might go together (in bizarro world...) but
"small,large" wouldn't make sense - nor would -T ext3,ext4.  Or, if
somebody stores mail & news on the same fs, nad they say -T mail,news
but the mail & news types have conflicting directives...

how will you define what an acceptable composite of subtypes will be?

Thanks,
