Actually, I'm not sure we should do this. I mean part of the beauty of
the cli installer is that we can use it to fully automate the
installation/upgrade of Mahara (e.g. hopefully in the Debian package
soon!).

Prompting for input would break this very desirable (in my opinion)
feature of your existing solution.

Title:
  CLI framework should accept input

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The CLI framework should allow for developers to ask users for input.
  For example:

    $sure = $cli->get_input(get_string('areyousure'));

    switch ($sure) {
      case('yes'):
      case('y'):
        // Do something
      default:
        // Don't do it
    }

  I believe that Moodle does this (it's used in the upgrade CLI script)
