When using kingpin.Version("..."), passing --version means .Required() arguments do not have to be provided. I have an argument with a .Default() that must be an .ExistingDir(). The default path does not exist on the system. When passing only --version, I get an error that the default directory doesn't exist, rather than the version. Passing --version --help means the version is printed correctly.

It would be very useful if kingpin did not check that .ExistingDir()s actually existed if the program is run with only the --version flag.
