Saw this when I was playing some more with -D today.

Are some of these options used with -D, or can they be removed? I am thinking of --noprogressbar, --noscriptlet, --arch, --noconfirm (?).
I think these show with every operation; they make no more sense with -Q either, right? That code is a bit of fun; if someone wants to fix it up a bit to make it show saner option lists then that would be pretty cool. -Dan
