Well, i have mixed feelings about that. It makes sense for people using
long protocol names, but it takes space from the last column where error
messages are sometimes presented. But 8 chars is often not enough, so i
am inclined to make the column wider.

Note that it breaks compatibility for tools parsing the output, so it is
definitely not for 1.6.x, but we could merge in next major branch.
