Are there precedences of combining verbose and version options in other programs?
No, I was just afraid about other programs rely on format of python -V.
PyPy just outputs sys.version for the --version option.
$ pypy -V Python 2.7.10 (5.4.1+dfsg-1~ppa1~ubuntu16.04, Sep 06 2016, 23:11:39) [PyPy 5.4.1 with GCC 5.4.0 20160609]
I think it would not be large breakage if new releases of CPython become outputting extended version information by default.
I like it if it's OK. Does anyone against this?
