No, I've generally just used ui-command to select (and document)
subcommands, and GetOpt to handle arguments. I think cmdargs added
support for selecting subcommands recently.

In any case, you are selecting subcommands by searching the
filesystem. Perhaps it would be a good idea to split out the
documentation part of ui-command ...
