Present long/short options separated in the options table for markdown formatted help
Metadata
Current evaluation
Request to render short and long CLI options in separate columns of the markdown help options table (e.g. | -v | --verbose | desc |) instead of combined '-v, --verbose'. Unlabelled, zero comments, and the current code still uses the combined format.
Suggested action: needs triage
Reason: The issue has no labels, no comments, and no assignee, showing no sign of categorisation, so it needs triage. It is not stale-closable: I verified craft_cli/helptexts.py's _build_markdown_command_help still emits the combined format (tests expect '| `-h, --help` | ... |'), so the request remains applicable. It is a low-priority cosmetic formatting suggestion, so impact is minimal.
