That's an accident.  Do not rely on it.

hm, i frequently rely on tacking-on options after the fact, especially 
the -- ones.

Just like the best workflow is append-mostly, command parameters are 
often added append-only as well, without jumping back and forth in the 
command line to edit the command.

Path or brach names starting with '--' are weird anyway, so isnt this 
a reasonable expectation? I hope i'm not misunderstanding something 
here.
