Good point. It's seems not officially documented. In my local Ansible 
installation I've found the relating code part
in playbook/tasks.py

   182          # the command/shell/script modules used to support the 
`cmd` arg,
   183          # which corresponds to what we now call _raw_params, so 
move that
   184          # value over to _raw_params (assuming it is empty)
   185          if action in ('command', 'shell', 'script'):
   186              if 'cmd' in args:
   187                  if args.get('_raw_params', '') != '':
   188                      raise AnsibleError("The 'cmd' argument cannot 
be used when other raw parameters are specified."
   189                                         " Please put everything in 
one or the other place.", obj=ds)
   190                  args['_raw_params'] = args.pop('cmd')
