Comment (by karsten):

 Hmm.  Part of me agrees because performance is important, but another part
 of me is hesitant because this format with fixed field names is really
 easy to parse (and easy to produce).  I'd guess that most applications
 would parse the whole thing to memory anyway before looking at it, and
 then it should be cheap to just build an internal map of contents for
 performance reasons.  I think I'll leave the format unchanged and give you
 and me the chance to implement it in Stem and metrics-lib.  Thanks for the
 feedback though!
