I am not sure about starts_with(). Do you mean we should accept "--color-mo", as that is a prefix of "--color-moved" that is not shared with any existing option, until we gain a different option "--color-more"?

If you mean "--color-moved-ws=no" (or "--no-color-moved-ws") as a way to countermand an earlier --color-moved-ws=<something> on the command line, I fully agree that it is a good idea.
