I will say the following. I fully agree that "--install-suggests" should
exist, and should do the right thing. It sounds like an easy enough feature
to add, my guess is that the code for installing or not installing recommends
could be adapted to work with relatively little difficulty. (I'm guessing the
recommends feature is simply setting a configuration option, so duplicating
it and changing the option set should work. I may be wrong though.) That is
definately a wishlist bug.

As for the apt.conf configuartion option, I think it is documented in the
correct place (configure-index.gz), although it may be wise to mention that
file from the main apt-get manpage, as a list of other options that can be
used through the -o command line option. That mention is worth a seperate
wishlist bug.
Finally, if the documention indicating how one uses the -o command line
option is not clear (the apt-get manpage should definately have at least one
example of that options use), then that is annother wishlist bug, but may be
worth merging in with the previous one.
