Agreed. I think the '--' is redundant

But is it doing harm?  There are quite a few commands which use -- to
mean 'end of options; what follows is data' (where "data" can (and  
often
does mean) options to pass opaquely to another command being invoked).


I'll shortly commit changes to Test::Harness that implement test  
options with '--' as the punctuation. If we can think of a sensible  
reason not to do that I'll change it :)
