hey, where can we ask for more commandline options ?

if there is no place yet, I think I'll ask here right (don't hesitate to move my post if it is not the place)
anyways,
I was wondering if there could be some option to pass the savefile we want to play in the arguments of the game to directly start the game with that game loaded

My second request is an argument to ask the game to output log into the console as well as the logfile (using the error output as well)
