Comment (by warner):

 latest patch (also visible in https://github.com/warner/tahoe-
 lafs/tree/166-args) fixes the first issue (mentioning global options)

 So the remaining question is {{{-d}}} before the subcommand. I'm not
 hugely motivated to make it possible to write new scripts that work with
 old versions (unlike py2/py3 I think once you've upgrated to a new tahoe
 version, you'll just stick with it). And I prefer the simplicity of having
 fewer options (I still want to remove the {{{-C/--basedir}}} option from
 the node-admin commands, but want to respect David-Sarah's opinion that
 people may have scripts that will break).
