confusing mysqlbinlog help message on --verify-binlog-checksum

Details

    Description

      The help output for the -verify-binlog-checksum is confusing, it reads

        -c, --verify-binlog-checksum 
                            Verify checksum binlog events.
      

      as if there were extra checksum events in the binlog.

      It should rather say

        -c, --verify-binlog-checksum 
                            Verify binlog event checksums.
      

      as the checksum is just a property of the actual binlog events, there are no special checksum events.
