Best way might be to discard the concept that the indent under the
parameter occurs. Maybe just do 1 or 2 characters. Choosing 2 works
fine - for some reason 1 causes wrapping to break which is odd.

Also need to add code so it wraps the parameters themselves. Looking
at it I'm realizing that that is not there. With an auto-adaptation to
an indent of 2, you get:

###############
Header
-x,--extralongarg
  This
  description
  has
  ReallyLongVa
...
###############

Though that does mean a really silly width of 2 probably infinite
loops. And a width of 1.

I'm starting to get the urge to do CLI 3 :)
