I've had a deeper dive into the code and we can do a better job (than my quick hack). If you're still interested :-) There are a lot of format...

There are 51 Expandos, which can be categorised: Config Option Expando Definition Config Type / Flags need newline attribution_intro IndexFormatDef DT_EXPANDO|D_L10N_STRING attribution_trailer IndexFormatDef DT_EXPANDO forward_attribution_intro IndexFormatDef DT_EXPANDO|D_L10N_STRING forward_attribution_trailer IndexFormatDef DT_EXPANDO|D_L10N_STRING...
