There is always a trade-off here as to what a flag *means* .. does
simply specifying it mean that its 'set' or do you need one of the
following (set) to actually define it - [on,yes,y,ON,YES,Y,1].
Parsing such a set is slightly more tedious than simply accepting it's
existence, bearing in mind you need similar logic for the inverse
(OFF,off,NO,no,N,n,0].
I think the portage code-base is the one area I've seen this kinda of
option-handling (and overrides) done pretty well (potentially not
'perfect', i just said 'pretty well').
