I don't see what you're talking about, Markus' email shows them passing the format string as a part of their custom script, what I am suggesting is environment variables that will effect the default output of sacctmgr show qos (and other entities) like SQUEUE_FORMAT and SINFO_FORMAT.
I haven't read the documentation top to bottom, but from perusing the sections about list/show and searching for the words variable/environment/format I haven't found anything to suggest this exists.
