This format follows the existing 'human' option, but makes it easier to render as a table in Markdown viewers. Both layouts are present:

  • Crate
  • License

The backtick (`) is used to make it easier to visually parse the long list of elements in the second column. This design is partially inspired by the cabal-plan license-report tool [1],[2].

This needs to be rebase, and it appears I'm not allowed to force push to your fork.
