I'm a little surprised that adding a field in the middle of a table is
considered a "compatible format," particularly so in a patch, but if
we're absolutely sure that there's nothing dependent on this but human
eyeballs, then it seems ok to me.

Please do make sure that when the man page is updated, the stability
is updated to the current terminology (what was once "Evolving" is now
"Committed"), and that the man page makes clear that the stability
applies to the command line arguments only, as the output from this
command (as this project makes plain) is substantially less than
"Committed."  It's probably "Volatile" at best.
