Setting --work-dir does not appear to change the default location of work.

--outdir is for output files, -w / -work-dir for working directory, but this comes from Nextflow itself.

Doc states
-w/--work-dir The temporary directory where intermediate data will be saved
So if I change this I would anticipate the Nextflow "work" directory being output to the location I provide? However that folder and all intermediate files are output to the directory the cextflow command is run from.

True, this is a typo in the help then - feel free to open a PR to adress this, otherwise someone else will take care :-)
