Comment:

 I'm not sure but I agree, just reading a command

 {{{
 t.rast.univar tempmean where="start_time < '2010-01-01'" -h
 }}}

 and wondering if -h is a mistake or not and then I remembered this ticket.

 The reasons why I'm not sure are:
  * `-c` as a column to *not* adding columns (general problem of many
 flags)
  * what should be the default, user friendly output or parseable output?
 (consider e.g. g.mlist and g.list)

 Anyway, I'm for the change. (I cannot do it now but I guess it is easy
 once approved.)
