For sure -- I'm using optparse right now and it is usually pretty good
about being flexible in the standard Unix way, in terms of long/short
args and spaces or no spaces, etc. I've been trying to make sure that
most options have at least one long and short option each.

Regarding this env thing, --env was just an example -- will have to
see what spots are open. I'm actually in the middle of writing the
docs for "fab" and its CLI args, so after that's done it will make
things a bit easier in terms of seeing what's available flag-wise. -E
might well work.
