To be honest, I'd expect existing "frontend implementors" to be able to parse
"MI" output that's not conforming to the specs rather well as problems like
the one mentioned here are not exactly unheard of ;-}

So I am personally all for rectifying the situation and produce "proper MI2
output" from now on, just for the sake of coming generations...
