Comment (by knarf):
Then we need to decide: forbid '-' entirely, or blacklist only '-' followed by any valid Cactus option (about 17, but frankly we should remove some of them anyway). I don't like either option very much.
Dashes are a popular delimited that, if possible, we should make available to the users. A blacklist might be the best option, even it it means to have some ugly long regex twice in the Makefile plus in the setup perl script - which is a nuisance to maintain. Opinions?
