Oh, I agree with that 100%.  I didn't mean to suggest (let alone to
demand) to support the possible truncations.

I simply was hoping that Thomas would respond with your "For a user
who uses tab completion, it is natural to use --unt<TAB> so by the
time we use find-on-command-line, we can expect the fully-spelled
form" when I asked about "--unt=no"; that would give us a warm and
fuzzy confirmation that the patch author has thought things through
when designing the new feature.
