>Summary: optparse needs reference documentation

Initial Comment:
The optparse libref documentation, while extensive, 
doesn't actually include an API reference. There's no way 
of knowing the valid parameter set of 
OptionParser.add_option() without going through the 
source. 
 
Please consider adding an API reference page for each of 
OptionParser (including OptionContainer), Values, Option 
(aka make_option) and OptionGroup.
