If existing functionality can be used to achieve the same end result without any extra effort by end-users, that's a happy endgame, isn't it? There isn't a reason to be frustrated---the users benefit with the new --trailer option without adding (hence having to learn) new extra features like --own-ident or @name, which is a big plus.
