I agree in principle.  I favour being more inclusive about pgbench
options, even if the need for such options is only marginal, which
this isn't - I personally would have found it very useful recently.
pgbench is an expert-level tool, and I find arguments against adding
more options along the lines of "that will distract beginner users"
completely unconvincing.
