Phillip M. Feldman <pfeld...@verizon.net> added the comment:

The current behavior of optparse is contrary to how most of Python
works. optparse should throw a named exception that can be trapped and
identified by the calling program.  Doing a SystemExit is unacceptable.
 I can't believe that this is such a hard thing to fix.
