No --add-package-cpath option

I want to use luafilesystem in fennel script. luafilesystem is a C-based Lua module, so only lfs.so file is available. I have installed it in custom location via luarocks and it's not available by default for require.
While I can set LUA_CPATH variable or set package.cpath from code, there should also be an option to add to package.cpath from command-line, similar to the way package.path can be manipulated with --add-package-path option.
Is there any reason why there is no such option?

No reason; just haven't gotten around to it yet. If you want to add it, that'd be great!
