What about calling the useflag "GIR" (or "gir")? If the user does not
know what it stands for, he will hopefully look up the description to
see what it means. And in contrast to "introspection" the chance of
getting a false sense of the meaning is low.

Just as an idea (as I personally dislike awfully-long-useflag-names)
