The problem is that glib2 does not offer a shorter version. We would either need to reimplement some of the logic to provide a more concise help page, or extend glib2 and submit it upstream. I've added a Launchpad blueprint in case someone from the community wants to help out. Please refer to https://blueprints.launchpad.net/mysql-proxy/+spec/make-help-less-verbose
