I'm not sure about what to do with the multi-pack-index command.
Probably going through a deprecation process makes the most sense if we
do want to get rid of the top-level `--[no-]progress` there, too. But
let's have the discussion elsewhere and not buried in the MIDX
bitmaps thread ;).

Thanks for noticing. I got up and did something in between writing and
sending this patch, and had a nagging feeling of forgetting something
before I sent. But I couldn't figure out what ;).

I'll resubmit this patch (with the doc changes squashed in) as a new
thread on the list so we can have the discussion not buried in another
thread.

Thanks,
Taylor
