Problem statement

I find myself needing to run --collect-only very often and that cli argument is a very long to type one.

I do think that it would be great to allocate a character for it, not sure which one yet. Please use up/down thumbs to vote if you would find it useful or not and eventually proposing which char should be used.

Clearly this is a change very easy to implement but first I want to see if others would find it useful or not.
