      Consider the command to build a background index:

      db.foo.ensureIndex({bar:1}, {backtround: true}) // typo intentional
      

      A typo in the options like the one above will trigger a foreground index build, with may have a very negative impact on production environments.

      It would be nice if we could validate options to the ensureIndex() command, and fail with an error message if invalid options are provided.
