I agree that this would be the most logical. But there is a problem with
backward compatibility. The behaviour of --use-compress-program will
change.. what about this:
-I, --use-filter-program (general 'vanilla' API)
--use-compress-program (obsoleted alias to ^^^)
// remove from --help & man & info to not confuse people
--use-compress-like-program (with a *proper* definition what it does)
// or choose a better name?
