+1 to the separated.

I don't think you'll have time for this, but I'd also like to see our
auth messages handled consistently. At times you're told "-u must be
specified" and at others you get a message about authentication failing
that comes directly from the server (and is enclosed in quotes, you know
the one I'm talking about). For some reason I think there's even a
different message when using pulp-client.

If we don't get to that this sprint, I'd like to see that in CLI
enhancements soon.
