Any ideas how a functionality test should be structured, in order to
exercise the three effective verbosity modes?

                      normal      verbose
         (default)      ON          OFF
         --silent       OFF         OFF
         --verbose      ON          ON

(there really isn't any way to have "verbose" output without "normal"
output).  Might also want to verify that:

   --silent --no-silent

(in that order) restores default behavior.
