Hi Dmitry,

Only a subset of the --foo options are available in the configuration
file. Currently this is (quoting from commands/lintian.pm):
 
    # Options that can appear in the config file
    my %cfghash = (
        'color'                => \$opt{'color'},
        'display-experimental' => \$opt{'display-experimental'},
        'display-info'         => \&cfg_display_level,
        'display-level'        => \&cfg_display_level,
        'fail-on-warnings'     => \$opt{'fail-on-warnings'},
        'info'                 => \$opt{'info'},
        'jobs'                 => \$opt{'jobs'},
        'pedantic'             => \&cfg_display_level,
        'quiet'                => \&cfg_verbosity,
        'override'             => \&cfg_override,
        'show-overrides'       => \$opt{'show-overrides'},
        'suppress-tags'        => \&record_suppress_tags,
        'tag-display-limit'    => \$opt{'tag-display-limit'},
        'verbose'              => \&cfg_verbosity,
    );

It seems reasonable that this option could be allowed so I am
therefore retitling (etc.) this bug to match.
