   Please don’t force people to vote for things they might not want (and shouldn’t).

   I have no problem with being able to state your opinion about the matter when running the client (even though using the client already implies some form of consent).

   However, the coinbase-voting is intended to be a good representation of the mining power behind the proposal. As the current codebase contains the changes stated by BIP 0016, the codebase should provide the vote as well.

   IMHO, a -nop2sh is possible that disables both the vote and the behaviour.

   Either a -p2sh=1/0 or a -nop2sh=1/0 is OK with me, but not both (what happens if I screw up and specify -p2sh=1 -nop2sh=1 ?)

   I didn’t realize bool args took a parameter ;)

   Refactored with -p2sh[=0/1]

   I agree w/ sipa: create a “nop2sh” option, which is disabled by default (i.e. p2sh is enabled by default)
