Let's also not forget that the whole flags/arguments debate is often not really that useful in todays *nix command line, either. I'd love to see more command-line utilities work like the Heroku gem and less like sed. (Yes, I know it breaks the whole Unix philosophy of one tool == one action, but from my experience it is far easier to get new people to learn.)
