Structured output from 'list' and 'stat' (e.g. json) #732

Is it possible to get structured output from list / stat? E.g. as json or XML? My use case is to systematically check files (e.g. location / editors) and then to act on this. It would be helpful to have 'drive list/stat' output in json/xml/other format, so that it's more reliable to process (and so that the text output does not need to be parsed).

Currently there isn't any way to get structured output.

Marking this as a feature request.
