To allow regularisation (and user customisation) of the output, I think we'd have to redo that completely. Instead the backends would dump the output to a temp dir,

we'd parse it completely, add it to some structure, and then output the data into a buffer in the format we want. (Something that looks a bit like tabulated-list-mode, but where the user can, for instance, use commands to make columns disappear and appear as they wish.) I think that's more than doable, and worth doing. I wonder whether anybody's had any concrete ideas in this direction before (so I've added Dmitry to the CCs).
IIRC there was a similar or related issue where Stefan M. suggested a similar course of action.
Nobody has taken up the work yet, though.
