Thank you, in the phab review I went with -D up, -D down, and -D both if you don't want to type -D twice. I don't think we need -D none to clear the flags so it's currently not supported, but it'd be easy to implement if we wanted to. I also tried to update the manual page, but it may require some wordsmith. Piotr
