Yes please! I'm also very fond of the succinct getopt sequence-of-letters style; it works really well for the simple cases.
The syntax "a:b" is also widely known; people who are often write small shell scripts are certainly accustomed to it (I am).
Clarification: this isn't a vote for preferring getopt, it's a vote for availability of the sequence-of-letters style.
+1
Oleg.
