Now that we have SigLevel fully implemented, do we want/need something like this for a command line override? Perhaps most useful on a -U <file> or -U <url> operation [1].
Hi, yes definitely! But I see that the sig levels are split into package and database levels now.

[1] Alternatively, do we want/need more granularity on SigLevel? Just as we have an override on a per-database level, it might be wise to have a 'UpgradeSigLevel' top-level option that would default to the global SigLevel setting but could be tweaked to take effect only for -U operations.
Personally, I think that the current sig levels are quite fine grained. Just curious, why only for -U? Thanks.
