Comment(by igloo):

 Well, you may not be sure that the flag exists, and be looking at the list
 of completions.

 Also, there's nothing about the command "ghc --show-options" that suggests
 that it is only for use by autocompletion. I would expect it would show
 all options.

 So if the shorter options don't cause any problems, I'd suggest not
 including the filter.
