I can't really help on this, except to confirm it.

Looking at the help, I'm not really clear on how a vector mask fits into the available options - unless it's a rectangle. But I'm very new at trying to understand GDAL from command line options, so I could just be being blind.

If you need something other than a rectangle (and I do occasionally), you could try clipping to a rectangle (by feeding it coordinates) and then masking the unwanted bits. 
But, this is not really a hand-data-over-to-client ready solution.

Hope this is of some help,
