   Could be. And what about double hyphen '--', for example, --deploy--no-p2p?

   Yes, of course, but I going to write the same that Guillaume wrote
above. With the following

         1) Change '--a-task-specific-option  ->  --task-option'

I wanted to say this:

         1) Change '--a-task-specific-option  ->
--<task_name>-<specific-option_name>

Examples:

         --no-category  ->  --inventory-no-category
         --scan-homedirs  ->  --inventory-scan-homedirs
         --html  ->  --inventory-format
         --force  ->  --inventory-force
         --tag  ->  --inventory-tag
         --backend-collect-timeout  ->  --inventory-module-timeout
         --additional-content  ->  --inventory-content-file
         ""                           ->  --inventory-list-categories

         --no-p2p  ->  --deploy-no-p2p

         [...]


   Best regards.
