And is --from and --current also mutually exclusive?  If yes, wouldn't
it be better to say something like: "--roots, --current and --from are
mutually exclusive"?  Or, similarly to the idea behind vshLookupSnapshot

if (exclusive && current && snapname) {
    vshError(ctl, _("--%s and --current are mutually exclusive"), arg);
    return -1;
}

If it's not the case, than ACK.
