The Bio::Root::RootI::_rearrange method, which is
used to parse arguments like:
	$obj = Class->new(
	    -id => 'foo',
	    -seq => 'acatgctagagctagcatcgacgatg',
	    );
doesn't do anything if you pass invalid options
(if, for example, "seq" isn't a valid option for
the "new" method above).  I think it should throw
an exception.  Does anyone object if I add this?
I can't see that it will break anything, unless
someone relies on this behaviour.
