Details:

The manual says that "you can use the -load directive instead of load, so
failure to load will not be reported as an error". However, it doesn't clearly
state if the missing object be added to the target list or not (in case of
using -load). As it turns out, presently it DOES, which, IMO, is
counter-intuitive.

So, at the least, such behaviour should be clearly documented, or it'd be
better to change it, so -load would match -include, and would NOT add
non-existing object into the target list.
