How did you create this output ?
I did not find any hint in monitor help or the qemu source tree.
(either too many matches or no matches at all for my searches.)
Is this what you envision to receive from this patch initiative ?

I explained more of my motivation in a reply to Laszlo's mail, i.e. why
I am really keen on exactly the kind of output I suggest with the patch.

But as a compromise, I would be willing to add the flat view map as well.
Still though, I see that as an additional patch on top, coming later,
as this would need more discussion about how to exacly format the output.

I'd really like to have that mtree mapinfo discussion tool merged _soon_.
