I agree, and go further, I would like to through every option including the ones that Felix mentions from time and ask if it should exist, if the default should change or if it should be combined with others.

Running mkgmap without any options at all should produce a reasonable map in most cases with options being for tweeks, adding information or dealing with difficult data
