For example:

$ bitbake core-image-minimal --runall unpack
...
NOTE: Tasks Summary: Attempted 326 tasks of which 88 didn't need to be rerun and all succeeded.

$ bitbake core-image-minimal --runall patch
NOTE: Tasks Summary: Attempted 453 tasks of which 332 didn't need to be rerun and all succeeded.

This can replace fetchall as well:
$ bitbake core-image-minimal --runall fetch
NOTE: Tasks Summary: Attempted 135 tasks of which 119 didn't need to be rerun and all succeeded.

This looks good (I’m sick of having to keep adding ‘all’ variants for tasks), but I don’t think this argument help description is very clear.

Ah I was struggling with the verbiage here. Feel free to make a suggestion otherwise I'll try for something better tomorrow.

Maybe something like:

Run the specified task for all build targets and their dependencies.
