The opt->options part of the parser only allows

sure there's code in d.vect to handle it, but the parser won't actually
let you give anything but the full words listed in the ->options line.
G64> d.vect fields type=bound --q
ERROR: value <bound> out of range for parameter <type>
Legal range: point,line,boundary,centroid,area,face
Ok, I get it. Any reason this is so ? Would it be possible / desirable
to change the parser to allow short versions of parameter names ? Maybe
have this as an option in the definition, i.e. parameter->short=YES ?
