Description of problem:

[root@iolo ~]# subscription-manager-cli subscribe --help
Usage: subscription-manager-cli subscribe [OPTIONS]

subscribe

Options:
  -h, --help           show this help message and exit
  --debug=DEBUG        debug level
  --product=PRODUCT    product ID
  --regtoken=REGTOKEN  regtoken
  --pool=POOL          Subscription Pool Id


I am wondering if we should include the term "subscription number" or what ever "official" term is sent to customers in addition to regtoken.

a suggestion:

Options:
  -h, --help           show this help message and exit
  --debug=DEBUG        debug level
  --product=PRODUCT    product ID
  --regtoken=REGTOKEN  regtoken or subscription number or "official term"
  --pool=POOL          Subscription Pool Id

OR

Options:
  -h, --help           show this help message and exit
  --debug=DEBUG        debug level
  --product=PRODUCT    product ID
  --subscription-number=subscription number  subscription number or regtoken
  --pool=POOL          Subscription Pool Id
