Bug Description
bzr short options like --1.14 and --pack-0.92 break rest/sphinx doc generation because the language does not expect dots in option names.
Possible fixes:
* work out an escaping syntax and use that
* remove short options for format names (it's not so common it really needs to be concise)
* hide the options for ancient formats
* accept them but don't show it in help

There may be some other bugs about the way they're shown in help.

I'm pretty sure we hacked around this in our rest front-end for quite
some time.
