Hi. I see you've already sent a v2 with that. Looks good to me. FWIW I
didn't feel strongly one way or the other about it, either would be a
fine choice by someone who's eyeballing this more than my cursory
glance.

I just wanted to point out the grep option in case you'd missed it,
since we've got a bazillion CLI options all over the place, and
sometimes there's an existing option that's thematically similar to a
proposed new one that's easy to miss. So we can re-use (or partially
re-use) the name, behavior, or not.
