[Personal hat]

Generally, I find the tabular view w/o newlines is easier to read, and 
makes it simpler to join to other data (though that may not be 
applicable here).

Again, I'm not the target user of this feature (until I need to use it), 
so my opinion comes with a few grains of salt.

Thanks,

Jonathan
