I really don't know to be honest. Originally, I was really in favor of
keeping a solution that doesn't require external modules, but you
pushed docopt, and I ended up being OK with it. So if now you tell me
there is a reasonable solution without docopt, why not.

Who would do the rework? André, are you willing to do it?

The thing is that there is still a number of very useful improvements
in the branch provided by Thomas DS. So in fact, I believe I might be
applying Thomas DS patches first, and then if someone wants to revert
back to argparse for argument parsing, a follow-up series should be
sent.

Best regards,

Thomas
