Why? Oh, I think I know: we shouldn't refer to anything that is specific to our command-line client, because it is not the only client.

It is useful if log messages always indicate _why_ the change was made, because although it is usually obvious to the committer at the time, it is less obvious to other people and at future times.

  grep "\".*--[a-z].*\"" subversion/lib*/*.c

says you missed one in subversion/libsvn_client/export.c.
