@akgrant43 also thinks a command line flag would be the way to go here (see https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/pull/279#issuecomment-414133977).

Here's one last argument against it that I can think of: the option parser fails on unknown options and that means that CI scripts can only use, e.g., a `-suppress*` option iff supported by the vm, otherwise it will fail. The only way to make that work is to check the version of the vm before opening an image, which in turn adds complexity to CI scripts.
