Summary: Improper handling of command line syntax errors by wix tools

Initial Comment:
During a period of over two months when I used wix
tools to generate my installer packages I have
discovered that all tools consistently fail on syntax
errors by throwing excepotion which is than dumped to
output. Obviously that kind of output is helpful for
wix devlopers but very much useless to plain ordinary
wix user. The tool should in case of syntax error
display help message (what most command line tools do)
or simply provide error message which would inform user
on the nature of syntax error.

Obviously this is rather minor bug but fixing it would
bring wix toolset command line interface to "standards"
compliance status ;).

Could you please give some examples of the specific syntax
errors which cause these problems?  Also, please note that
we'd likely only fix issues like this in WiX 3.0 since its
mostly a fit-and-finish issue.
