I believe BlobStoreBench should live in the main repository in blobstore-tools 
as this commit does.  We could recast this in karaf/cli although that has some 
drawbacks, including being unfriendly for developers to work with and more 
importantly poor user experience.  This pull request raises a greater question 
about how to package jclouds-related tools for administrative and debugging 
tasks.  I would like to move towards a really-executable-jar using either 
airline or args4j and have some work-in-progress commits here:

https://github.com/maginatics/jclouds/tree/blobstore-cli

86f9310a40cc87b1de19468fc2e61fa0a4f0a0b7 has the most interesting bits, 
although airline was not up to the task the last time I looked due to 
airlift/airline#6.

I do not want the perfect to be the enemy of the good.  Maginatics has used 
BlobStoreBench for over a year and it would be good to push this upstream.
