Hmm, what' -I^#?

I don't really like it. Users shouldn't really care about whether the option
is for this part of the code or that one.
Agreed.
Couldn't we seed the option set of
each modules from the transtractor code or such?
I've tried something like this but it failed because Sgml.pm complained
it did not know about 'porefs'.
Maybe the modules should add the options they recognize to a hash list
that they would return to whoever controls things at the top. Then any
option missing from the hash would be reported as an error.
Mixing module options and "general" ones (ie, for Po.pm or
so) would also
allow to add this feature to all binaries, not only updatepo.
Yes, po4a-gettextize would probably need this option too.

I'll try to give it a spin tomorow.
Great!
