You could define you own if you wanted to take this approach. I don't encourage using exceptions to communicate with the user.

I suppose another option that wouldn't result in an overload explosion is to require returning an exit code on all of the `SetHandler` APIs. It would be a fairly disruptive...

This is something we've been considering, in fact. We'd have immediate use for it in .NET Interactive.

Can you explain a bit more about what you're trying to do and why this output is your expectation? Also, examples using precise strings without the C# escaping would be...

This is complicated and hard to talk clearly about. 😅 Going back to the previous example and taking System.CommandLine out of the picture for a moment, the following would work...

Could you say a bit more about what you're wanting to do? One hint that might or might not be relevant: If you keep a reference to the `Option` from...
