Terminal (human) UI and scripting (machine) UI should be separate if the latter is a concern at all.

Think Debian's apt which is intended for human use, while apt-get is for scripts and sticks to a predictable console output.

TIL the difference between apt and apt-get; Thanks! (I was often a little bit curious, but never quite curious enough to go chase it down.)
