Fair enough, but:

[root@...co ~]# perf report --hi + head -15
 Error: Ambiguous option: hi (could be --hide-unresolved or --hierarchy)

 Usage: perf report [<options>]

    -U, --hide-unresolved
                          Only display entries resolved to a symbol
        --hierarchy       Show entries in a hierarchy
	[root@...co ~]# perf report --hie | head -15
# To display the perf.data header info, please use --header/--header-only options.

Thanks, as a suggestion maybe we should have a:

  $ perf config ui.hierarchy 

as we have:

[root@...co ~]# perf config ui.show-headers=true
[root@...co ~]# perf config ui.show-headers
ui.show-headers=true
[root@...co ~]#
