Oh bother. The lines I completely overlooked were in your __getattr__ override. Boy is my face red. On further experimentation, adding a do_xxx command without the decorator still works...ish. The undecorated do_xxx is still considered to have a help function, and it prints the raw docstring (instead of using the show_help method to clean it up).
