I propose that we introduce --start and --end (or some variation eg. --start-period, --start-time) for improved readability of the command options. Currently we use --since and --until to mean the periods from which to begin and end for inclusion in the query digest. This would be more in line with the concept of beginning and ending something, since the strings "since" and "until" are not often the first words on peoples' minds when searching for valid time range options.

include --start --end that are aliases to --since --until
