As we just got searchable help, github/hobot@acdfaefb41f, it would be great if scripts could use consistent argument names in their tomdoc. This allows for an easy away to pull up commands by common functionality. Some common arguments I've seen already are: img, word, num, query, location, url. Unfortunately, everyone uses different names for them and so searching for common functionality isn't possible.

Any objection if I submit a pull request to make them consistent? If not, then we should probably also think about handling new scripts. I can volunteer to make them consistent, we can document known argument names and/or require users to use a consistent name if it exists.

Thoughts?
