Hi fellow Optik users,

In certain circumstances I find the need to know if any options are set in
the Values instance returned by the OptionParser's parse_args() function an=
d
am wondering if I am the only one who would like to be able to run len()
against the Values instance ;-)

Is this need due to a bad design or order in my option parsing?

I have also felt a need for an optional option argument: I would like the
user to be able to provide a value when using an option but would also want
this option to have a default value. I have failed to use the `default'
argument in an Option instance (i.e. even after specifying a default, the
option still required the user to provide an argument to it)....

Any thoughts are welcome.

Thanks in advance,
