I worry a bit about the multiple-property case -- e.g.:

  $ dladm show-prop power-mode,radio ath0

... feels more comfortable to me *with* the leading "-p":

  $ dladm show-prop -p power-mode,radio ath0

However, I do agree with your overall point.  Does anyone else have any
strong opinions on this topic?  If so, please speak up :-)

Yes, I hate that inconsistency too.
