**Describe your use case and the problem you are facing**
Feature request [from Slack](https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02RP4T41/p1646921699739609):
> Hey, is it possible to download the WordPress archive with wp-cli command and extract it with another command?
>
> Use case : I need to cache wp archives, but I need to install with the user permissions. (Cache only works with root permissions), because we need to share archives between all server users. Any advices?
**Describe the solution you'd like**
Adding an `--extract` argument that defaults to `true` and can be opted out from using `--no-extract`.
If opted out, WP-CLI would just download the archive to the target location but not extract it.
