I personally do not think it is a big deal since combination of
stat, summary and patch are primarily for human consumption, but
somebody might want to write a frontend GUI on top of this
output and having an easy way to seperate the parts for machine
consumption might be helpful.

Think of it as an opportunity to come up with the most sensible
without having to worry about backward compatibility ;-)  I'll
let you know what I think after I stare at its output for some
time.

Thanks.
