I see. Actually during the development, I craved for simple
output_normalizer option in the Param itself, which would apply the
output normalization funtion after the post_callback,
instead of having to mangle the entry_attrs in the post callback of each
command (and could potentionally apply on the client). Would there a be
not-so-hard way to do this in the framework? My understanding is that
Output classes are quite decoupled from the Params they resulted from,
and at the point we're printing the information via the textui, we're no
longer aware what Param instance it originated from.

Updated patch attached.
