I suspect that would not fly too well.

Being able to say "give me all flags meant for rev-list", "give
me all what are meant for rev-list", and "give me all non-flags
that are meant for rev-list" are very handy, so I'd rather want
to see --revs-only to mean "meant for rev-list", --no-revs to
mean "not meant for rev-list", --flags to mean "only ones that
start with a '-'", and --no-flags to mean "only ones that do not
start with a '-'".  And that would give me (rev/no-rev/lack
thereof) x (flag/no-flag/lack thereof) = 9 combinations.
