Is there a reason why CommandLine doesn't have a way to configure its sdtin ?

One can write

int status = new CommandLine(new JufmtCommand())
        .setOut(out)
        .setErr(err)
        .execute(args);

I wanted to read from stdin and test this, but I noticed this was missing in the command line API. Maybe there's a reason for it ?

Hi @bric3, Picocli does not use the Standard Input stream, so there is no API because it is not used anywhere.

Indeed I guessed it. But from a consumer perspective this felt strange to not have stdin, I always picture this trio together.

I know this can be worked around. But do you think this makes sense to have it next to other streams?
