Some discussion required on details of course, but the particular use case I have in mind right now is in the gcf calculation.
In this thread: #248
@ryneches had a frustrating issue to do with attempting to use rooted trees as input for the --gcf
flag. It could be relatively easily fixed with newick utils, but still an additional option like --force-unroot-input-trees
(or something better named) would be really useful.
For my money, this should just apply to all trees read in by IQ-TREE, that way the implementation can go right into the function that reads in trees, and would just set all input trees to unrooted for a given analysis. I suspect this would solve 90% or more of the problems.
