I don't really want to remove it as I didn't want to add it in the first place.
I don't mind it being there: I just don't use it.  I guess if you want remove
it then it's clearly less work (for me!) and that's fine with me too but you
need to remove the test and the description in the manual too.  More
imporatantly I think Daniel J arranged so that -var-list-children,
-stack-list-locals and -var-update shared code so you'll have to break that up.

If we fix it no changes are needed there unless you want to add a test for the
fix.
