Your objections are and were noted.  I don't really
care about the format. I thought I had improved the output
at the time.  I find the new format easier to read myself
but I really don't care. If people would prefer a different
format, someone please change it.

What's really depressing about this is that we are spending
so much energy and angst over the layout of dots.

What does that have to do with the test runner?
