[pve-devel] [PATCH access-control] pveum: introduce sub-commands

Thanks for this, useful to test the other patches.

I am yet in the process of looking at the code changes but tested
a bit around. I noticed three problems:

* when using the `help --verbose` command, e.g.,:
pveum help --verbose

All but the first `USAGE: ...` strings are intended, which wasn't
the case until now and makes it harder to find/distinguish the
different sub commands.

* It would be really nice if the following could work:
# pveum help user add

As with just the quoted version working it can confuse users.

* bash completion does not seem to work anymore
