Major - P3 When shard keys are long enough, they aren't output on a single line by sh.status(), e.g.:
> sh.status()

This is because tojson() is used, rather than tojsononeline(). Outputting with tojsononeline() would make for very long lines, which would not be good, but as it stands the current output can be extremely difficult to read.
The best solution would be to pass an appropriate indent value to tojson(), so that the indenting is preserved if multiple lines are needed. This would give output like:

{ "_id" : "admin", "partitioned" : false, "primary" : "config" }
{ "_id" : "test", "partitioned" : true, "primary" : "shard01" }
