Bikeshedding, but I'm thinking that it would be better to provide a whole separate command for this rather than a quicker convenience option -- the command would, for instance, also include @world as the target by default. As for the options, i'd recommend adding --ask and - --verbose The advantage I see for it being an extra command is that it's a clear one-purpose convenience command; while if we use the '-U' option there'll be others that will probably add additional modifier options and possibly also use it against targets other than @world; i'm not sure if we'd want people to do that by default.. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iF4EAREIAAYFAlD1Z18ACgkQ2ugaI38ACPCNLQEAvi05mWKPbFZ0gi7yhSKieSY/ KA+THvQYTFSKDxyUTCUBAINfve059rg6IcGdBWc+HcGlRtny0T3miIM5mLER26br =E0zR -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
