Mhh, if an JSON outputer is also provided a prioi *I* had no problems
with an incompatible change. It is awful to parse the current output.
*But* I am not sure if this opinion is shared by Stephen too. We
probably break several scripts/applications with this change. Breaking
the output *and* do not provide an stable alternative (JSON) is bad.

+1 for JSON (which is not that hard to implement)
