Sure ;-)

Thx.

Well, we have to change renderer interaction in this case. Actually renderer 
can be call to print task header, task line or task detail.
This make sense for screen display but not for XML, CSV or whatever format.

It would be nice in order to keep it unbloated from the user point of view. 

DRY ( don't repeat yourself) is very pythonic ;-)

I've merge it with my small raw mode and push it... Git is quite cool 
sometimes, but if we don't push/pull very often it generates lots of merge 
commits ;-(.
