Hi friends!

There's little doubt that the huge and alpha sorted --help output can be a bit
intimidating to users and it can easily make the options you really need drown
among all the others. We are at over 170 options now and the list keeps
growing.

What to do about it that will be helpful?

spaceone filed this pull-request https://github.com/bagder/curl/pull/252 that
reorders the list and adds subtitles. The latest incarnation of that
suggestion can be seen here: https://bpaste.net/show/2ea7b5081e50

I'm however not completely sold on that method as the final solution to the
problem, so I'm suggesting another take at the problem as detailed in my
comment to the PR here:
https://github.com/bagder/curl/pull/252#issuecomment-109327337

What do YOU think?
