I will have to take more time for thought into this, and discuss most
likely with the item writers who are arriving next week. However, at first
thought I think this might get grouped into a complaint and problems we've
had with Level 1 regarding which items are valid to be tested and which
are items that sysadmins would simply use a manpage for. We don't want to
test memorization of options, but skill and concepts. We'll have to
discuss this.
