Expected behavior

The --build-image flag is super helpful when using skaffold run, but it is not supported when using skaffold dev.
When in local development, I sometimes want to build specific images, and not all from a long list.
I'm aware it's possible to create different modules and build each, but this option is not very dynamic.
Any reason this flag is not support in the for the "skaffold dev" command?

Actual behavior

no flag is available to use

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Currently there is a flag with similar functonality to --build-image that is supported for skaffold dev called --watch-image that has near identical functionality. Would using the --watch-image flag solve the use case here?
