I don't mind the "--objects=xxx" format per se, but it would need to verify that the "=xxx" was either valid or wasn't there at all. So what I objected to was not that it was easy to mis-spell, but that if misspelled, the program wouldn't point it out as an error, but silently just do the wrong thing.
