Comment (by carter):
@jan, on one hand you're right.
On the other hand, most other compilers (eg clang and gcc) do have a way
of listing all of the documented options, or at least most of them.
however, Theres definitely value in having a curated list of all the
stable flags when someone does
{{{
ghc -h
or
ghc --help
}}}
which we currently only do i the barest minimal sense possible
