Patch Set 2:

My idea is that cmdline_opts contains only exactly the values read from cmdline. The config file parsing would not write to cmdline_opts but (usually) to the global application struct.

So, say we're parsing the cmdline options into the global struct. You need that first up, to get the -c config_file option. Then you read the config file into the same global struct. Thus the VTY has higher priority and possibly overwrites cmdline things, where usually the opposite is needed. That's why clear separation might become necessary at some point.

Otherwise I like that the results from cmdline parsing are in one place where no magic happens and which no-one touches, so that we can have clear logic on what is coming from where, as well as for clear validation. Also we don't need those in the global context after the program has started. That's just my opinion.
