Am I reading this wrong, or is std.getopt *really* this stupid?

Not a very comprehensive list. Virtually all of those issues have 
no comment on them. If it's a feature request you might as assume 
it requires a DIP cause there's no reason to otherwise waste your 
time implementing the feature. Oddly enough there's almost no 
other way to get anyone's attention of whether a feature requires 
a DIP or not unless there's a pull request for the feature. So if 
you want a feature you almost have to risk wasting your time 
implementing it. It's not a very good system, but someone throws 
up some stats about how many issues get solved/pull requests get 
created per month and they conclude that it's working fine.
