I only just started experimenting with it.  In the case I mentioned, it 
just
took me by surprise that it killed the whole string. It was in a 
function that
had just ignored any null strings, then I set the option and the function
was busted.  Now I know why, so it's all fine. To be honest it never even
occurred to me that command line args would be affected.  Anyway I get
it now, thanks.
