Description

In CLI 2.0 we expose the no_wait parameter in the _command_handler method of the create_command method in CLICommandsLoader. This method is not customizable, so I had to copy and modify the entire implementation from the base class.

Research direction

Start in CLICommandsLoader and trace create_command to its _command_handler implementation. Review how no_wait is exposed and identify an extension point that avoids copying the base implementation. Done means callers can customize the handler while retaining the existing command behavior.
