Hello, I am using coreutils version 8.27 on Fedora, and I don't see this fixed in 8.28's NEWS.
$ seq 1 --help seq: invalid floating point argument: ‘--help’ Try 'seq --help' for more information. We should be able to put the options anywhere and not necessarily before any arguments. And even if not (e.g. POSIX conformance overrides,) --help should be handled specially to conform to the GNU coding standards.
