You can ignore those in my mails in general. If they appear they are
added by git-send-email just to be sure that I dont send out
un-signed-off code.

Thanks, I missed to add that while rebasing.

That part will be completely rewritten shortly as you probably know by
now...

Or that they are to be quoted if necessary; discussion in the other
thread...

Hm yes. BTW ping utility source code file name. A read from file
function is another candidate for that...

"region file" as per discussion in the other thread.

We should bail out if -l is given but not -w. The proper fix is of
course to add support for -r too (with sane semantics unlike the above),
hence I'll fix cli_classic only for now.

Thanks for the review, I'll repost the whole set when I am done with
refinements.
