Yeah, but I'm thinking that we can abstract that technicality away and keep 
the syntax the same.

Right. So, if you choose an operation that is not supported, you get an 
error. But to help people know what is supported, we can add the lookup to 
ausyscall where  --io_uring could direct it to the right lookup table.

No, but I'm thinking of aesthetics and usability. You already have to specify 
a filter. We don't really need to have completely different syntax in 
addition. Especially since the operations map to the equivalent of a syscall.

But that's not what this is. These is for:
 -F dev_major=
 -F dev_minor=
 -F inode=

It dates back to before watches were possible. In any event, this is being 
allowed when I suspect it shouldn't.
