Thanks for your work!
I think that there can be even more consistency:
$ grep ' version' kbd-documentation-consistency.patch | grep -v usage
+Prints the program's version number and exits.
+Prints version number and exits.
+prints its version number and exits.
+prints version and exits.
Display a version number and exit.
+Display a version number and exit.
+Prints version and exists.
the option \-V prints the program version number.
+ -V --version display version\n\
+ " -V display program version\n"),
+ " -V --version display version\n"),
+ " -V prints version and exits\n"
+ " -V --version Print version and exit.\n"
+" -V --version display version\n"
