Yes, "False" is a no-op. You need "false" .. I did almost add "False" 
support,
but I was thinking of it for printing a message that the pipeline is 
disabled,
however so far as I could see, no pipeline prints anything for "False", even
if it understands it, which may only have been the case on Windows, and
all mis-spellings are silently ignored. Of course there's only so much we
can do here. If the user mis-spells the system property for example, but
I agree it would be nice to have some way to know that your request got
through.

I have a separate bug to clean up the pipeline verbose reporting, and
update user docs. I'll revisit this then.
