xmcli built-in help and online documentation

I am curious to hear how other XtremIO customers feel about the xmcli documentation provided in the array as well as PDF file.  I guess i have been very spoiled by the excellent documentation provided by Symmetrix team, even the block/file CLI documentation for VNX is pretty good.  When i am trying to figure out how to do things in xmcli i am using a lot of profanity because it's horrible.  Let's say i need to assign a tag to a volume.

xmcli (admin)> tag-object ?

Usage: tag-object property=value list

PROPERTY       |MANDATORY |DESCRIPTION |VALUE

============== |========= |=========== |=================

cluster-id     |No        |Cluster ID  |id: name or index

entity         |Yes       |Entity      |string

entity-details |Yes       |Entity ID   |name or index

tag-id         |Yes       |Tag ID      |name or index

does anyone think this is very helpful and intuitive ?  How about provide an example that looks something like this:

tag-object tag-id="

tag-object tag-id="/Volume/oracle-prod01" entity=Volume entity-details="LUN0252"

Comments ?
