who always prefer --verbose.

The previous version of the patch are:
 - [v12] $gmane/288820
 - [v11] $gmane/288820
 - [v10] $gmane/288820
 - [v9] $gmane/288820
 - [v8] $gmane/288820
 - [v7] $gmane/288820
 - [v6] $gmane/288728
 - [v5] $gmane/288728
 - [v4] $gmane/288652
 - [v3] $gmane/288634
 - [v2] $gmane/288569
 - [v1] $gmane/287540

   Note: One might think some tests are extra but I think that it will
   be better to include them as they "complete the continuity" thus
   generalising the series which will make the patch even more clearer.

Changes wrt v14:
 - Add the status related tests in a different patch after this patch.
