possible expansion of help mesgs for pacman -h

Is there any chance that the help blurb can be expanded to include the various printf attribute definitions for the "--print-format" switch when doing a pacman -Sh ?

I know the man pages includes the attributes list definitions, but it would be quite useful to pop up it up as part of -h flag. I don't use it enough to have it memorized but enough that I'm annoyed by having to look up the man page or use a separate command like expac. It would definitely be of help when doing various package related tasks.
