I'm wondering if we could replace the following command-line switches
    -allow-export {false|true}
    -allow-import {false|true}
    -dead-code {true|false}
    -sequence-unit {false|true}
    -warn-match {true|false}
    -warn-unused {false|true}
with a single switch
	-ann <ann>
so that instead of writing
	-allow-export true -sequence-unit true
one would write
	-ann 'allowExport true' -ann 'sequenceUnit true'
or even
	-ann 'allowExport true, sequenceUnit true'
This way, we only have a single switch, we get to share the
documentation for annotations, and when we add new annotations, we get
access to them on the command line for free.
