Comment(by strk):

 I'm for a modal option, we have so many switches already!

 What about a -t switch which could grow in time ? Mnemonic: type.
 Semantic: you can specify a pattern to either _force_ or _filter_ on.

 Do we also want to be able to _add_ an M or Z when missing ?

 PS: is this really a 2.0 item?
