The problem is that there is no way to discover those other commands in
the security plugin w/o knowing about them. And anyone who copies from
the security plugin for their own will stumble down that path.

I ran into it b/c that's where I started for the appmarket plugin I was
messing with. When I noticed that the commands were not all being listed
I found that the uniqueing of the commands in makeUsage as the problem.

so my deal is this: If we're not going to change it then at least mark
up the security plugin to explain it.
