--------------------------------------------------

I think people will be annoyed by that, i'll spam the comments in all patches.
I think it makes sense to developers to know one command - 'ci please help' e.g., and we need to add it to the signatures of emails from infra to devel, to the Jenkins UI and ovirt site.
So people will only need to remember one command, and once they type it, it will give them info on what is available.
