Yeah, in hindsight, we should have made "--textconv" a modifier for
"-p", because it is not a true cmdmode.  It is much easier to
understand if you imagine "--textconv", without a command mode,
implies the "-p" mode, but when a command mode like "--batch" is
given, that would apply.  And it is job of other individual command
modes to notice that "--textconv" modifier does not make sense in
their context and issue a warning.

I guess we are exactly on the same page (see "'textconv' is a
modifier, which implies '-p' command mode unless otherwise
specified" above).
