"Face" shouldn't be user-facing in CLI context. If we need to label
it we should call it by its common name, "subcommand," and we should
provide the name of the subcommand. Not all this output will be
viewed in real-time on a terminal, and users need to know what they
ran without hunting for it. E.g.,
"Puppet: 'node' has no 'something_I_cannot_do' action. See `puppet help node`."

Note to non-Puppet employees: this document isn't public yet, but I'm
working hard to get it published by Puppet Camp later this week.
