no, this is no ignorance. POSIX "replaced" tar with pax(1)[0], but we
should still, if we offer tar, follow POSIX's command line utility
guidelines (forgot what they were called) which also specify "--" as
end of flags, among other things. One should be able to rely on these,
if you ask me.

With best regards
