I do think that we should rethink parts of Parted (not libparted) for
2.0. It's getting too confuse the help message and the code itself
need some refactoring too.

I'm starting to think that the help itself might be:

 Commands                             Description
 print                                Brief explanation of print
 mklabel                              Brief explanation of mklabel
 ...

Once user run:

 help print

It shows all details of print, itself.

It'll make easier for user to track what each command does.
