All options with "# This can also be the filename of a ruleset." can be put in a special class (array?). Only for options which are an element/part of that class/array will the argument be tested to see if it's a file (test -f $argument) and if so, use the settings in that file.

I can see that it can cause problems as you describe it, but it's just a thought! ;-)
