Details

Suppose a vcs command takes a message (optional) and a filename to commit:
>> cvs commit --message 'blah' readme.txt


Ideal emptyParameter status shown under the input line, using | to denote cursor position:

>> cvs commit|
              <filename>

>> cvs commit --message |
                        <message> <filename>

Currently while editing a named parameter we explicitly drop all emptyParameter hints.

This isn't a particularly useful bug to have on file.
It's a feature request, and we're not actively developing GCLI now, and are unlikely to in the forseeable future
