 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.
