About the cmdline --platform option

Hi,

I have a question about the command line --platform option: In cmdline.lua, the options are defined as below, and if passed, the argument value is inside the active terms for matching against configuration specializations.

My questions:

is it necessary to pass this flag? i.e. I've seen genie's makefile using this option, but I've been making my projects for 4+ without it
the flag seems to be targeted at being matched against the platforms defined in the main genie file (i.e. the workspace settings).
hence the actual main question: TegraAndroid is a valid enum value for platforms, but it's not allowed by the command line options.

    newoption
    {
        trigger     = "platform",
        value       = "VALUE",
        description = "Add target architecture (if supported by action)",
        allowed = {
            { "x32",         "32-bit" },
            { "x64",         "64-bit" },
            { "universal",   "Mac OS X Universal, 32- and 64-bit" },
            { "universal32", "Mac OS X Universal, 32-bit only" },
            { "universal64", "Mac OS X Universal, 64-bit only" },
            { "ps3",         "Playstation 3" },
            { "orbis",       "Playstation 4" },
            { "xbox360",     "Xbox 360" },
            { "durango",     "Xbox One" },
            { "ARM",         "ARM" },
            { "PowerPC",     "PowerPC" },
        }
    }

Cheers.
