BTW, is there a reason why the options are not in order?

You mean alphabetical order?

Yes.

I guess that it is not really something to be fixed in this revision but I just wanted to ask. :)

Sure, no problems. I don't think it's a good idea to sort them alphabetically, because right now they are laid out in such a way to have semantically related operations close to each other.
For instance -d, -a and -h are detach/attach/attach-with-host, -n and -r are "create" and "remove", etc.
