The user interface description would benefit from some face lifting
within the GRASS commands. I'll need to go through a number of commands
(for the grass-ossim bridge I will focus on raster commands)
and look for problems.

I have seen the recent postings about this issue. The standardization
would benefit any kind of GRASS user interface. 
I am really happy to see people work on this matter.
