Right, the jimage container is internal to the JDK so it shouldn't be in 
the usage output (only the `jimage` tool, included for troubleshooting 
purposes, should mention jimage files).

Andy - are you planning to sync up with JEP so that it documents the 
latest CLI options? I realize it's a pain to keep the two in sync while 
you iterate but it's also confusing to have the JEP document options 
that no longer exist.
