Correct, I did this on the sprint, after discussing it with Matt and
timeless (and concluding the file behavior was pretty useless).

I disagree, they should be orthogonal. We changed -f to make it easier
for commandline users to adopt, but the --file behavior still doesn't
seem very useful to me (if it doesn't have -n as well).

That might be a good idea, though I don't think that's a regression.
