From @xzyfer's comment:

what are your thoughts on removing the --stdout and making it the default behaviour if an output directory or file isn't supplied. This the behaviour of Ruby sass and Libsass.

Adding to v2.1 milestone.

CLI: Retires stdout option.

When no destination or output folder is provided,
it will print the output to stdout.

If the source-map option was set, it will print
it as well.

README.md still says

Output will be saved with the same name as input Sass file into the current working directory if the --output flag is omitted.

Fixed in #1363 please merge.

@qm3ster, merged, thanks!
Aside, note that --output accepts the directory path instead of path including filename. So node-sass blah.scss --output myblah.css will actually write to {cwd}/myblah.css/blah.css (it will also do the mkdir myblah, if that was non-existent). If the intent is to write to a file with different name, then we can redirect output as node-sass blah.scss > myblah.css.
