Comment(by strk):

 The tokens one seems fine to me, I was thinking if we could include -S
 functionality in this new -t switch, something like -t Point, -t
 MultiLinestringZ, -t PolygonM, -t LineStringZM ...

 Adding the type would give you your ZM flags, but would require user to
 _know_ the type of the shapefile in advance, unless we have a way to split
 between type and dimension, like: -t Polygon:, -t Polygon:ZM
