Personally I would use the option specification that requires an argument, `opt=s` (instead of leaving it optional, `opt:s`, as rot earlier). If the option value would be `-`, then would switch to reading from standard input unconditionally (without using `-p` function). That special value of `opt` would be mentioned in the POD.
