What you could do is: when the text given is not a filename, just send it as text. Then you won't need an extra flag (--text). Ease of use is king!
EDIT: I realized that won't work, because it would be indistinguishable from what a receiver would type.
Also realized, you cannot send a file with a name of 64 hexadecimal characters..! That is a corner-case bug...
