I had proposed different binaries so that we don't bloat up a single
binary. Also with a lot of
command line options its easy to have separate binaries. Other wise
the cmd line options would be huge. I think is the same reason why the
python scripts tests/ are separate and not put in 1 script.

Cheers,
Alok.
