How important is consistency in options for Python command line utilities?
I'm thinking particularly of consistent syntax for options that are supported in
more than one utility. We use some options quite consistently, e.g. --durable
always means the same thing.
Broker addresses are specified in various ways:
-a
--broker-addr
--broker-address
a positional argument
Timeout can usually be specified as "-t" or "--timeout", but in qpid-route, "-t"
means "transport".
Should we care about this?
Yep, we should go for consistency. I trip over the broker address
inconsistencies every time I use the management tools.
