[Michael Andrewjeski]

Actually that would be a good feature, many of us prefer command line.

Thanks

Nope! Sorry. Not sure we want to add that either. I will bounce the idea
around though... kinda like --add-channel or some such... or
--activationkey=XXYYZZ for up2date. Hmm... I will CC a few others. We'll
see.

Note: you can always add this as a feature request at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/index.cgi

We do implement feature requests... it might not be tomorrow, but we do.
All dependent of course. -Todd
