I am not sure about that; I think users would not see those messages 
anymore and hence forget them.

My opinion is that we should have a less than 20 line help message 
(something like I proposed in a ticket 
http://www.logilab.org/ticket/9787 ) with a one letter option for 
disable / enable convention and the like for refactor.
The suggested one letter options would immediately be visible in the help 
message, and user would quite fast use them without forgetting refactor 
or convention issues.

The really important thing for me is a synthetic help message with one 
letter options for important things.

(btw --cache-size was disabled anyway ;) it will be removed with next 
release)
