I need to second Uwe's point here.  I use lout for pretty much one thing (a
formatter for a bunch of data my users want all prettified).  I use
basically ONLY this really long table.  

While I'd love to expand my usage of lout, I really have limited time to
devote to it.  Please take _my_ silence not as lack of interest, but simply
lack of time to be involved.
