       should the command just take an @ident?

-Flags, Options and Tables
------------------------------
-
-Coq has many settings to control its behavior.  Setting types include flags, options
-and tables:
-
-* A *flag* has a boolean value, such as :flag:`Asymmetric Patterns`.
-* An *option* generally has a numeric or string value, such as :opt:`Firstorder Depth`.
-* A *table* contains a set of strings or qualids.
-* In addition, some commands provide settings, such as :cmd:`Extraction Language`.
-
-.. FIXME Convert "Extraction Language" to an option.
-
-Flags, options and tables are identified by a series of identifiers, each with an initial
-capital letter.
-
-.. cmd:: Set @setting_name {? {| @int | @string } }
-   :name: Set
-
-   .. insertprodn setting_name setting_name
-
-   .. prodn::
-      setting_name ::= {+ @ident }
-
-   If :n:`@setting_name` is a flag, no value may be provided; the flag
-   is set to on.
-   If :n:`@setting_name` is an option, a value of the appropriate type
-   must be provided; the option is set to the specified value.
-
-   This command supports the :attr:`local`, :attr:`global` and :attr:`export` attributes.
-   They are described :ref:`here <set_unset_scope_qualifiers>`.
-
-   .. warn:: There is no flag or option with this name: "@setting_name".
-
-      This warning message can be raised by :cmd:`Set` and
-      :cmd:`Unset` when :n:`@setting_name` is unknown.  It is a
-      warning rather than an error because this helps library authors
-      produce Coq code that is compatible with several Coq versions.
-      To preserve the same behavior, they may need to set some
-      compatibility flags or options that did not exist in previous
-      Coq versions.
-
-.. cmd:: Unset @setting_name
-   :name: Unset
-
-   If :n:`@setting_name` is a flag, it is set to off.  If :n:`@setting_name` is an option, it is
-   set to its default value.
-
-   This command supports the :attr:`local`, :attr:`global` and :attr:`export` attributes.
-   They are described :ref:`here <set_unset_scope_qualifiers>`.
-
-.. cmd:: Add @setting_name {+ {| @qualid | @string } }
-
-   Adds the specified values to the table :n:`@setting_name`.
-
-.. cmd:: Remove @setting_name {+ {| @qualid | @string } }
-
-   Removes the specified value from the table :n:`@setting_name`.
-
-.. cmd:: Test @setting_name {? for {+ {| @qualid | @string } } }
-
-   If :n:`@setting_name` is a flag or option, prints its current value.
-   If :n:`@setting_name` is a table: if the `for` clause is specified, reports
-   whether the table contains each specified value, otherise this is equivalent to
-   :cmd:`Print Table`.  The `for` clause is not valid for flags and options.
-
-   .. exn:: There is no flag, option or table with this name: "@setting_name".
-
-      This error message is raised when calling the :cmd:`Test`
-      command (without the `for` clause), or the :cmd:`Print Table`
-      command, for an unknown :n:`@setting_name`.
-
-   .. exn:: There is no qualid-valued table with this name: "@setting_name".
-            There is no string-valued table with this name: "@setting_name".
-
-      These error messages are raised when calling the :cmd:`Add` or
-      :cmd:`Remove` commands, or the :cmd:`Test` command with the
-      `for` clause, if :n:`@setting_name` is unknown or does not have
-      the right type.
-
-.. cmd:: Print Options
-
-   Prints the current value of all flags and options, and the names of all tables.
-
-.. cmd:: Print Table @setting_name
-
-   Prints the values in the table :n:`@setting_name`.
-
-.. cmd:: Print Tables
-
-   A synonym for :cmd:`Print Options`.

-Locality attributes supported by :cmd:`Set` and :cmd:`Unset`
-````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
-
-The :cmd:`Set` and :cmd:`Unset` commands support the :attr:`local`,
-:attr:`global` and :attr:`export` locality attributes:
-
-* no attribute: the original setting is *not* restored at the end of
-  the current module or section.
-* :attr:`local` (an alternative syntax is to use the ``Local``
-  prefix): the setting is applied within the current module or
-  section.  The original value of the setting is restored at the end
-  of the current module or section.
-* :attr:`export` (an alternative syntax is to use the ``Export``
-  prefix): similar to :attr:`local`, the original value of the setting
-  is restored at the end of the current module or section.  In
-  addition, if the value is set in a module, then :cmd:`Import`\-ing
-  the module sets the option or flag.
-* :attr:`global` (an alternative syntax is to use the ``Global``
-  prefix): the original setting is *not* restored at the end of the
-  current module or section.  In addition, if the value is set in a
-  file, then :cmd:`Require`\-ing the file sets the option.
-
-Newly opened modules and sections inherit the current settings.
-
-.. note::
-
-   The use of the :attr:`global` attribute with the :cmd:`Set` and
-   :cmd:`Unset` commands is discouraged.  If your goal is to define
-   project-wide settings, you should rather use the command-line
-   arguments ``-set`` and ``-unset`` for setting flags and options
-   (cf. :ref:`command-line-options`).
