That was my reaction also, so I produced this POC patch. I think print.h needs some more work, and that'd be only for 20.
Chao's decision to include the row and column headers makes more sense to me. The promise of this feature is that the visual output of booleans as t/f should go away if the user chooses to make use of these local variables. While we may not be able get them all (e.g., composites and arrays) doing so here is trivial to accomplish.
