Perhaps not, but if you look at kpasswd it lists the principal option.  It
could just as easily use the italic style on the word principal in its
description and then mention the option as was done in the kinit doc.  This
would be a trivial matter either way for the kpasswd page given the short
length, but for kinit if for some reason I don't know what principal is and
I go looking at the bottom of the list where I would expect it to appear
given the read are in the order as presented in the syntax and then I don't
find it, I'm a long way from the top where it is mentioned.

Very minor overall as anyone looking at kinit should probably know what a
principal is already, but I think consistency is slightly better served if
it was listed.
