Comment (by wenzeslaus):

 Replying to [comment:1 mlennert]:
 > I definitely would not want it to replace the file option.

 I don't know if to replace it or not. The thing is that we are adding file
 option to more and more modules. If the parameter file is available, then
 not only all modules but all their options too have a solution for the
 length limit of the command line arguments. That doesn't rule out the file
 option for convenience and alternative syntax, but you don't needed to
 implemented just because you need it once.
