The more you chop up the help namespace the harder it will be
for novices to locate the help they seek.  This feels simple
and moves topics out of the command namespace:

bzr help
  enumerate commands including mention of the topic command

bzr help COMMAND
  describe the specifics of command COMMAND

bzr topic
  enumerate non-command-specific help topics

bzr topic TOPIC
  display help for TOPIC
