Yes, including upload would be consistent IMHO

command line option handling shows that it has grown in a hotch-potch
way. I'd say a clean way would be:
tilesGen.pl [options]
By default it fetches jobs from the server, renders, and uploads to
wherever it is configured to do in a loop.
-xy <x> <y> [<z>] render specific tileset and exit (no upload)
-u --upload upload loop only (can be used with -s)
-s --single perform action once and exit (no loop)
-v [n] set verbosity (to <n>)
-h --help print help and exit
This is really all that is needed.
