Bug Description

It would be nice if apt-get supported --with-recommends and --without-recommends, for aptitude compatibility. At the moment the option names are spuriously different.

Also, please document the options in the man page!

I see that this functionality has not been added to apt-get, I'll mark the bug as Confirmed so it's not stuck in New status.
