+1!  Which I thought I would say because often I am a status quo type
of person.  But this is clearly needed.  Hardly a day goes by that I
don't hear swearing from people about the current extremely noisy and
hard to use df output in the environment of dozens of pseudo file
systems.  And I don't think this will break legacy and scripted use.
