Agreed for single-letter options.  Long options complicate matters:
are we going to order their code stanzas by the actual long name, or
by the character/number returned by getopt?  Or are we going to be
willing to repeatedly renumber the assigned codes to keep those the
same?  I don't think I want to go that far.
