Don't worry about it anymore. It's all in Postponed patch #101022 at SF.
It makes the current "-O" the default (and uses co_lnotab), and reverts
back to the current default with "-d".

I give myself a break on this. You guys need to test it now and report
some feedback and impressions. If only to help Guido making up his mind
and give him a chance to pronounce on it <wink>.
