Description

For example, I can run:

tahoe cp --verbose …

and it works, but then when I run

tahoe mkdir --verbose …

it says:

tahoe:  option --verbose not recognized

For consistency, perhaps all commands should accept --verbose even if some of them (currently) don't change their behavior in the presence of it.

(Or actually even better would be to make all commands change their behavior to emit progress indicators and other useful tidbits when --verbose.)
