User can do type-conversion directly after fetching flag value. This feature added bulk of hard-to-test code, which is likely not to be reused nor maintained in future.
String userID = arg_user.get();
User user = UserResolver.find(userID);
Custom flag type were avoided by gflags. All parsing should be done after fetching the string value in the client code.
