ISTM this use is likely rare enough that it doesn't warrant an API expansion. The argparse API is already somewhat large, so we should only expand it when there is a compelling benefit or the absence of a reasonable workaround (i.e. lazily adding a group only when the first argument is added). ---------- nosy: +rhettinger _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue9350> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
