Producing a page tree requires an extensive incantation #174

Description

@maxb

The fairly common (I think) case of producing a page tree requires quite a lengthy incantation of options:

-tree -r -subns -pagesInNs -textns="Page Tree"

I propose that it would be a helpful user experience improvement to add a single easily-memorable option (e.g. -pagetree) which is an alias for the above quintet of options all in one.

(I have included -textns="Page Tree" in this as without it, you get the not really correct heading "Subnamespaces:" by default.)

Additionally, once using these options, it is a bit unintuitive that the way you set the text string above the tree is the -textns option. It could be a further improvement to allow -text as an alias for both -textns and -textpages. (Clearly this would produce nonsense results in the case where both strings were rendered, but in that case, the user is expecting there to be two different strings to think about.)
