Comment:

 I like this.  jhpalmieri ''always'' knows how to add actual helpful
 documentation that is not too verbose.

 This changes the help message after `sage -br` ~~but for some reason it
 doesn't actually change the banner~~ and now I read comment:2.

 As for the quotes, I don't have a strong opinion either and this seems
 reasonable.  I guess if we get emails asking for how to use help we'll
 need to change it!

 All the sage/misc/ tests pass, and so although I'm going to run all of
 them now I'll put this as positive review.  I don't think it's a problem
 we don't test these, because in theory Sage should work fine without the
 very very long process of building documentation (why oh why is that not
 parallelized yet?).
