  • Remove ArgumentParser.
  • Provide interface on CommandLineProgram to query the remaining arguments (in case no actions, switches, options or parameters are registered, this would return all arguments)
  • Allow for nesting actions (presumably merge action and program or subclass program from action)

The background was an internal discussion with @sbusch42. We reviewed the currently two existing implementations to parse arguments from the command line (namely ArgumentParser and CommandLineProgram) and decided to merge their implementations.
