I am not fundamentally opposed to the parseopt conversion, but I was
somewhat discouraged from taking another one, after we got burned by the
one that converted git-apply without much visible gain but with a new bug.

Because ls-files is a plumbing, it has somewhat lower priority for user
friendliness than any other patches currently in-flight on the list; hence
it has been backburnered.  It still is kept in my Inbox.
