    I got sidetracked :-) last time.  The code in this area is ancient.
    
    Text format isn't like the other formats because (1) it is isn't 
self-contained, It needs prefixes for abbreviation and (2) there isn't an input 
version.
    
    Where are you wanting to output text format?
    
    `QueryExecutils.outputResultSet` handles it - making 
`ResultSetFormatter.output(OutputStream, ResultSet, ResultsFormat)` do the same 
(lookup properly for first-class results formats, and have some adapter code to 
handle the other ways) is one way. Would that work or you?
