If the user selects pretty-printing (-p) the contents of any
dictionaries in the output are sorted by key.

Hi, out of curiosity, what does this help you accomplish?
I've recently been overhauling a LOT of the Python utilities we have, so
I'm interested in hearing about how people use these tools and what
they'd like them to do.

When dumping a dictionary with many values, visually finding a specific
one that is of interest is much quicker if they are sorted. Nothing more
than that.

Okay, simple! thanks for the input.
If you ever have any other laundry list desires or feedback for
qmp-shell, let me know, as I intend to overhaul it soon.
(I may turn it into a GSoC project, too.)
