As discussed on IRC, it seems like this may be easier and more reliable
to achieve by using exit statuses. Instead of exiting 1 on a missing
flag, and returning 0 otherwise while printing out the key (or not)...

Maybe emulate e.g. grep. Return 2 if an error occurred, i.e. missing
option, and then even without -i, we can return 1 if the option is not set.
