------------------------------------------------------------

There are 2 option, 

Make nt to accept '-' by making "Options" ignore any -xxxx values (dont verify 
if they are valid options), this can cause confusion on other commands.

Other option (Attached patch) is to support escape character for '-' 
{code}
Example: ./apache-cassandra-1.2.0-beta1-SNAPSHOT/bin/nodetool move 
\\-2253536297082652571
{code}
