There isn't really any code involved for "make correct syntax" as
myaction doesn't include the --, we just strip those from
"correct" actions, and I don't see a way to make a multi-purpose syntax
correction function without knowing future cases.
In the long we run we should probably replace the whole option parser
stuff with some standard code anyway (getopt or similar).
