No, the intention is to have -F <format> be a consistent option across all subcommands where it's appropriate. > Also, even if other commands are using -p, that won't make it inapplicable > to the publisher command will it? No, but other subcommands already use -p for something else, while -F is only used for image-create, which has no output, and thus doesn't have a consistency issue. > At this stage, perhaps it's best to putback what I have and file a bug to > harmonise these requirements at a later date when other subcommands > introduce formatted output? No; please introduce this -F option for publisher. You should also consider what it will do when given a publisher prefix as an argument.
