NAME

I had yesterday some time, so I picked up:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=499161
You can download this script from:
http://miroslav.suchy.cz/spacewalk/
Scroll down for description.
Before I commit it to git, I would like to hear feedback from you.
Do you like it? Do you dislike it? Is name OK. I do not want to name it
simple "spacewalk", I suppose that spacewalk should be what is now
/usr/sbin/rhn-satellite.
Do you like the format of substition strings?
Do you like the output?
In which package it should land? rhn-client-tools? new package?
