So perhaps two main modes should be --canonicalize (default) and
--canonicalize-missing (with missing=True)?
That sounds reasonable. And I think strict should be the default.
--canonicalize is not strict. --canonicalize-existing is most strict and 
--canonicalize-missing is least strict. When you have a function which 
have non-strict behavior (--canonicalize), you can implement a wrapper 
with strict behavior (--canonicalize-existing), but not vice verse.
Yes, I meant --canonicalize should be the default.
