Also, I see from Operations that four options (config, host,
disk, device) are common to all subcommands, but not shown
for print or validate. (Ok, print I know isn't implemented,
but validate is, right?)

Is it really allowable to run validate with no options?
It seems the config file name is needed by the Amanda::Application
constructor.
