Обсуждение: postgres long options without value

Every so often I find myself trying to write

postgres -D ... --ssl

or

postgres -D ... --debug-print-plan

which fails, because you need to write --ssl=on or
--debug-print-plan=true etc.

Have others had the same experience?  Would it be worth supporting the
case without value to default to on/true?

Please, don't do it. You can be fooled when we change a parameter default
value (specially if you have it in a script that is used in different
versions) from major versions.
