Subject: Split pathchk's -p into multiple flags?

Hi,

I'd like to enforce the POSIX portable file name character set in my
projects, which `pathchk -p` does, but I don't want to enforce the
POSIX maximum path component length of 14 characters, which it also
does. Would it be useful to introduce separate flags for the three
rules enforced by `-p`? One to enforce non-empty file names, one to
enforce the POSIX portable file name character set, and one to enforce
the POSIX maximum path component length.

Kind regards
Victor Engmark

Hi

tl;dr Please close this.

I sent a copy to coreutils <at> gnu.org after realising that was more
appropriate, and I didn't think my bug-coreutils email would be
registered since I wasn't a member. Sorry for the noise.

Kind regards
Victor Engmark
