This patch adds a ReGroupHelpFormatter class, which regroups positional arguments in the usage line as discussed before. It builds on the reworked usage formatter in bugs/python.org/issue11874 (which keeps usage as a list longer). For a complicate parser, usage may look like: usage: regp [-h] foo [arg1 [arg2 [arg3 [arg3 ...] [arg4]]]]
