1 Looks OK. Although I'm not a fan of the proposed change. Changes like
2 these make scripts a tiny bit more tedious. If you have a bunch of
3 --autounmask stuff in your script, you can now just do --autounmask=n
4 and turn it all off. This means you'll have to turn off more stuff. And
5 --autounmask-continue is supposed to be used "with great care" anyway,
6 so I think it's fine to demand users to write --autounmask too.
