what the heck, I'm just noticing I had sent this to Rich only earlier, and not to the list! Resending.
FWIW, Rich had accepted my argument (also in an off-list message -- but that's totally my fault; I had gone off-list first) Laszlo. On 1/30/23 19:12, Richard W.M.

My thinking was, "output.connection" and "output.format" and "output.storage" were already output options. So "output.options" felt like "other output option options". So I stuck with "misc". The second "o" in "-oo" can be read as "-o<other>", not necessarily as "-o<options>", so the second "o" in "-oo" didn't convince me otherwise. I can rename the field if you feel strongly about it. I'd rather like not to, TBH; it's going to create a bunch of conflicts, and, again, the other options that aren't called "options" are still options.
