I'm down to +0 on the request.  Keeping the API stable is also
important.  And, Fred's effort to separate basic from advanced seems
reasonable.

Filling in the missing docs for existing flag, start, and stop args is a
good idea and should probably be done even if the function API changes
are rejected.
