If you use "quantum help <command>" rather than quantum --help, it will 
give you more detailed help about <command>.  For example:

$ quantum help security-group-rule-create
usage: quantum security-group-rule-create [-h]
                                          [-f {html,json,shell,table,yaml}]
                                          [-c COLUMN] [--variable VARIABLE]
                                          [--prefix PREFIX]
                                          [--request-format {json,xml}]

                                          [--direction {ingress,egress}]
                                          [--ethertype ETHERTYPE]
                                          [--protocol PROTOCOL]
                                          [--port-range-min PORT_RANGE_MIN]
                                          [--port-range-max PORT_RANGE_MAX]
                                          [--remote-ip-prefix
