g.search.modules: flag to negate/invert selection
Useful for reviewing info or manual pages.
Alternativeky it could be -i (for invert) but -n (for NOT) used.
In v.extract we use -r Reverse selection
https://grass.osgeo.org/grass72/manuals/v.extract.html
In r.colors etc. we use -n Invert colors
Maybe it is more like -r Reverse selection?

In v.extract we use -r Reverse selection
https://grass.osgeo.org/grass72/manuals/v.extract.html
Sounds like a match.
In r.colors etc. we use -n Invert colors
That's argument for or against -n? 
I can see we could add there -i for
actual color inversion as opposed to color table flipping (probably doesn't
change anything).
Maybe it is more like -r Reverse selection?
There is also some -i for inverse in r.mask and d.rast. -r is used for
reverse in v.edit and v.extract. All three are used for many other things
as well (e.g. -r remove, -n nulls, -i ignore). So I really don't know.
Either of those is good for me.
