New submission from exarkun <[email protected]>:

`twistd web --help` produces, amongst other things, this output:

{{{
  -n, --notracebacks      Display tracebacks in broken web pages. Displaying
                          tracebacks to users may be security risk!
}}}

Okay... the option is called ''notracebacks'' and the behavior of supplying it is for tracebacks to be displayed?  Not likely.  Displaying tracebacks is the default, and this option really does disable that.
