Could someone clarify why this (from PG 8.4)

# \du
              List of roles
   Role name   | Attributes  | Member of
---------------+-------------+------------
 admin         | Create role | {}
               : Create DB
 postgres      | Superuser   | {}
               : Create role
               : Create DB
 someotheruser |             | {}
 someuser      |             | {}

is an improvement over this (from PG 8.3)

# \du
                                 List of roles
   Role name   | Superuser | Create role | Create DB | Connections |
---------------+-----------+-------------+-----------+-------------+------------
 admin         | no        | yes         | yes       | no limit    | {}
 postgres      | yes       | yes         | yes       | no limit    | {}
 someotheruser | no        | no          | no        | no limit    | {}
 someuser      | no        | no          | no        | no limit    | {}
(4 rows)

The way I see it, a perfectly clear, complete, and legible table has
been turned into a denormalized, unreadable, and ugly pile of ASCII
salad that moreover wastes valuable vertical screen space instead of
using the abundant horizontal screen space.
