This sounds like a good idea. The only argument in favour of keeping it
the way it is now is too weak to take serious: it makes it slightly
easier to parse the output of “herd status”.
Could you please prepare a patch to change the output? It’s also worth
checking how gettext is used in shepherd (I don’t know more than that it
uses “l10n” as a “gettext” alias) to make sure that the string can be
translated.
Thanks for this proposal!
