That makes me wonder why the option was included (even in a stable release)
if it doesn't do anything :)

Thanks. Should've mentioned I already tried that—this option unfortunately
has no effect. I get "No bit rate set. Defaulting to 96000 bps."
The simple explanation would be that there's no interface yet (as indicated
by "ffmpeg -h full"), but maybe a dev can confirm this.
