Subject: [cli] Why is the Constructor to CommandLine package protected?

Hi,
I'm working with version 1.2 (I've checked the 1.3 source as well) and I'm
in need of writing a parser that's a little more strict than the provided
parsers. I really like the rest of the framework, but if I can't instantiate
a CommandLine object without being in the same package I can't extend it
very well.

Is there a reason that this is protected that I'm just not seeing?

Thanks
Jason
