Currently, out listeners output XML.  I would like to provide an
alternative output format, for example, comma-separated values (CSV).
Let's call this proposed listener a DelimitedValuesWriter, because
we'll be nice, and let the user choose a delimiter/separator besides a comma.

I'd like to make up some initial (simple) requirements.  We can expand
on them later.  Here is what I propose:

   The DelimitedValuesWriter will be added to the tree just like every
   other listener.

   The UI will:
     allow the user to enter a string to use as a delimiter.
     allow the user to enter a file to which the values will be written.
     allow the user to specify whether he wants the column names to appear
     as the first line of the output file.

   The UI will not display results as they arrive.

   The output file:
     By default, the fields written will be the same as those which are
     currently written to XML.
     By default, the fields written will occur in the same order as those which
     are
     currently written to XML.
     The fields to be written can be specified in the jmeter.properties
     file.

Comments, suggestions, etc. are appreciated,
Keith
