I think this is a reasonable state of affairs, but personally I find
that the `terse' changeset output used by e.g. `tla changes' is in fact
_more_ readable than the `human readable' output used by show-changeset
(partially because the terse output is very familar, and partially
because I often find a single list of name/type pairs to be rather
easier to grok than multiple lists-of-things-of-each-type).
[because of the use of single/double-letter symbols for types, this is
probably only true for a regular arch user, but I assume that's who
would usually use show-changeset anyway]
