Give me an example what output you would like for the command
"create-domain --user anonymous domain2".
Do you want to see the effective value of every possible option
to the create-domain command, even though most of them were not
specified and the default was used?
Or is it sufficient if the output contains only the --user option?
Do you expect that you can cut&paste the --echo output to re-execute
the command? Would a different output format be acceptable?
