I didn't see where that "11" was, but now I see you have it for the
register formats but not the item formats.  That's what confused me.

Yes, it does seem to suffice for the non-register items that we actually have.

OK.  Then this change is OK with me.  

But I found the comment "... the FORMAT strings typically already contain
their maximum width" confusing/misleading when the non-register item
formats in fact do not do any padding.

Yes, but the issues in this are so much smaller and easier to decide! ;-)
