Should we change those programs and refer to manual page or show a
synopsis one-liner instead?

I get the scroll-back argument, but I dare say it's a weak one given
that this is something users can fix most of the time, e.g. by using
tmux.

I'd really like to have a valuable usage in ldomctl and haven't come up
with a better and still consistent way of doing so.

ssh-keygen is another good example of long usage that is most probably
not going to change back to a simpler one;  I just stumbled over it due
to wrong usage and was therefore reminded of this mail thread.

What do other (ldomctl) users say?
