   I would like to discuss first what is the plan with a new command line 
parsing:
   
   1. What is the problem we try to solve?
   2. What are the issues and limitations with the current one?
   3. The discussion IMO should be drivenb
   4. What new features and bug fixes require  new command line arguments or 
new parsing if the current parsing is not sufficient?
   5. Implement the command line parsing in-house or use a 3rd party library?
   6. What use cases we have with a new command line parsing? Examples what a 
new avrogen could do (via scripting examples)?
   
   One obvious command line requirement I see, which I mentioned earlier, is to 
support multiple input files (I am working on 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1724). As far as I can tell right 
now, the current command line parsing can support it.
   
   I would recommend to discuss these first before we get to actual 
implementations.
   
   @martin-g @RyanSkraba Any thought on new command line features? Any bugs 
feature requests might require more advanced command line parsing?
