I wish that the output of "lxc list" and similar commands would not have the dash-lines between rows and columns:
They make the output take up more rows and more columns than it otherwise would.
Other linux programs don't use this format: df, ps, zfs list, ...
I imagine that the reason for the lines is to separate the rows better when they wrap, but I don't find it very usable when the lines wrap. I make my terminal wide and I also customize the command so it shows fewer columns. For the default 6-column output, the extra lines take up an extra 14 characters per row.
I wish there were an option to disable the row/column separators.
