Good point, I hadn't thought of that. Maybe ArgumentParser needs a "don't try 
to be so helpful, parse like optparse" option. Which is what Steven suggested 
earlier, I believe.

I'd take a crack at this if there's general consensus on that solution.

We can change the documentation to point out the issue now, but the feature 
request can only go in 3.3.
